The "What I learned today" thread

Hard to beat Horsey

Must be the crunchy kind though.

Be very careful giving that stuff to dogs... loads of it has palm oil in it now, which is terrible for dogs apparently. So are some artificial sweeteners like xylitol, which is absolutely lethal to dogs.

The stuff without either is brilliant for them, especially in those little chew toy things, but if it has xylitol, it's brutal for them.

I've learned a long list of things in the last year that are fine for humans but terrible for dogs, including onions (the whole onion family, so leeks, shallots, garlic and the like), raisins (and grapes, too), palm oil, artificial sweeteners and plenty of other things. Every second day I end up googling stuff to see if it is toxic to dogs, after the feckers get at stuff in the park. Today it was banana skin: apparently that's no harm, except the extra fibre may be tough to digest.
