The company and love I get from my dogs more than makes up for the points you mention. :D. Our Whippet has a pleasant 'dog smell' to him. Dogs 4TW!

I had a border-collie for 18 years. Absolutely gorgeous, intelligent and loving dog. Dog smell however, yuk! For some reason wet-dog is about the only smell that truly sticks to the back of my throat.
 
Surprised nobodies dogs in this thread are either seriously ill or dead. Chocolate is highly poisonous to dogs and eating cakes..:eek:

Bread, pizza all very bad for dogs,

In regards to the dog smell, that is directly related to what the dog eats, if it eats a poor quality diet, they'll sweat the toxins out through there fur making the smell "doggy".

Give them a good diet and i can guarantee you they will never smell.

Our next door neighbour’s dog only goes out for a walk, he lives indoors, he goes barking mad if they try to put him outside when they go out. The house stinks. :D

You would think my dog Louie (The Spaniel) would be dead with the amount of bread and chocolate cake he has stolen in the past but he's the picture of health :). Lovely coat, no bad smell and he's alert and very active. They always go out once a day for a couple of hours off the lead. We've never had any health problems with them so far *touch wood*.

The chocolate issue is a bit like roulette, the more they eat the more dangerous it becomes.

Theobromine is the chemical that can and does kill dogs, 100 and 150 milligrams per KG of dog weight will kill the dog. Different types of chocolate contain different amounts of theobromine: It would take 20 ounces of milk chocolate to kill a 20-pound dog, but only 2 ounces of baker's chocolate or 6 ounces of semisweet chocolate. But thankfully its like a lottery. Some dogs take one bite and they die, others like your dog devour an entire cake and there fine.

A couple of the cakes were cheap store bought cakes, one my sister bought when she passed her A-Levels and the second was one her friend bought round the day they finished school. I would query there actual chocolate content of both cakes, it's probably how he survived eating them :p.

Aye true. The key is Flavour and Flavoured. Flavour meaning is tastes LIKE chocolate but doesn't contain any. Flavoured being contains chocolate.

Would love to see some pics.
 
How come the dog left the pizza all alone until you had woken up, seen the pizza, planned to eat it, and then eat it itself?? WHy not eat it in the middle of the night?
 
Had a right scare with our Springer last night - thought he was in the early stages of bloat.

Had a mate visiting who decided to have a go at a KFC 10-piece bucket by himself. He made it through 5 pieces then hocked the rest to the dog. Dog eats a few, waits for a bit, then starts parading a piece around for about 10 minutes before eventually wolfing it down.

5 minutes later he starts lying down and crying at random. His midriff barrelled up and felt hard, but he didn't seem really out of character (besides crying).

The Mrs. got a ball out and threw it back and forth for him for a bit and he was playing just fine, then suddenly stopped, cried and lay down. We were absolutely terrified.

Looked up bloat symptoms on the net, but thankfully he didn't meet them -- his stomach was making lots of gurgling noises and he wasn't listless or dry heaving - gums looked fine too.

Went to bed and this morning his stomach's down and he's happy as larry. Looks like he got a taste of what happens when you eat too much - indigestion and an overstuffed stomach. Probably lay downstairs the whole night farting.

Knowing what Springer Spaniels are like (Having one myself) he probably just devoured the KFC to quickly making his tummy hurt :p.

I was in my bedroom, with the door shut all night

then I ran for the phone, and in that short period of time the dog got out of her basket downstairs, did a stealth run up the stairs, then was tucking into it as I returned to my room.

Git :(
 
And as for the dude chucking KFC to his dog... surely the bigger risk is the small bones which could easily lodge in the dogs throat ?

Yeah, well aware of the "no cooked meat on the bone" thing (cooked bones splinter more easily), but he's never had a problem with it in the past.

He's fed on a completely raw diet usually, mainly raw chicken wings which he loves crunching through.
