Is feeding my dog a hamburger patty every day truly safe or healthy?

The only problem with that is that the hamburger is fatty, and too much fat in a dog's diet leads to pancreatitis. In my opinion, this wouldn't be a good treat to give Chloe. Instead, how about giving her some boiled white meat chicken (no bones)?? That would be a healthy treat for her to have :-)

Yes, that's fine. Most dogs tolerate beef well. If she vomits after eating it, or diarrhea is noted within three days, then she may not tolerate it well. This can happen either due to it being too rich, or a food allergy (not that common). This does have a fair amount of calories though, so I always reccomend you account for these types of treats by feeding a little less of their dog food. This will help prevent obesity, which is a common problem with dogs in the U.S. I hope that helps.

The best food to feed Bentley is a high quality puppy formulated food such as Royal Canin, Hills Science Diet, or Purina ProPlan. That's all he needs to be healthy. It's not recommend to feed him human food on a daily basis, as that can lead to obesity and further health problems. I will give you a link to a website that shows human foods dogs can have on an occasional basis: http://www.akc.org/content/health/articles/human-foods-dogs-can-and-cant-eat/

Eggs are fine as an occasional treat, but it's not something that Andy should get daily. The only food that a dog needs is a high quality dog food, which will provide him all the nutrients he needs to be healthy. Adding additional food on top of that will lead to extra calories and weight gain. Weight gain leads to obesity, which in turn leads to its own health problems such as heart disease, diabetes, and joint problems. It would be fine to give him a boiled egg (no shell) once or twice a week as a treat. You can also give him a scrambled egg, but make sure it's egg only and no seasonings etc. Good luck, I hope this helps!

Yes, it's fine to give Bruno small treats throughout the day if he enjoys this. Some good options that are fairly healthy for him would include raw carrots, green beans, or small pieces of meat such as chicken or roast beef. Just make sure to account for these treats when you are determining how much food to give him each day, to make sure that he doesn't become overweight :)

Hello. Yes, they can, but should they? Hot dogs are loaded with fats, sugars & salt & not very nutritious for us or for our pets. An occasional treat or taste is fine, but I have seen too many dogs get hooked on fatty meats & refuse to eat their regular diet. As a result, we see obesity, pancreatitis, organ damage & skin problems. If you want to treat Piper, or use a small piece as a training aid, that is fine, as long as she eats a good balanced dog food diet daily.

Butter is high in fat and should not ever be given to dogs really because it has no nutritional value to them. It also has the high probability of giving him diarrhea. You can give him bread every now and again (1-2 times a week), but again, there are safer and more dog friendly treats at your local pet store. I would recommend milk bones instead.
