why can't a dog eat pork?
Posted to: News & Entertainment
I Just found out that dogs are not supposed to eat pork i.e. ham, bacon, etc??? I feel bad that I gave this to my dog, not regularly, but little bits mixed in with her dry food when we've had ham for dinner. What's the story? I know you good people at i-dog will have the answers!!! Thanks

I'm conducting an experiment
Posted to: News & Entertainment
I want to see just how long one spotted hound can snooze in one spot. [ ] Usually we let him on the couch for an hour or two during the day and to snuggle if we watch TV or a movie. The rest of the time he has to stay off. Last night, he snuggled for 4 hours (yeah, we were REALLY lazy last night)...

Searching for Good Training Treat Recipes
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
Does anyone have a good training treat recipe? I'm looking for treats that don't crumble too bad, are soft so that the dog can chew and swallow quickly, don't take hours to bake, and don't cost too much to make.
