Dangerous Desserts for Our Dogs – Chocolates, Sugar, Dairy products, and Yeast

Dangerous Desserts for Our Dogs - Chocolates, Sugar, Dairy products, and Yeast

There are unhealthy or dangerous desserts for our dogs. With the many seasonal celebrations that we enjoy along with birthday parties, weddings, baby showers and many other party events.

These celebrations beckon our baking skills joyfully demanding cakes, candies, and pastries. Ingredients of chocolates, sugar, dairy products, and yeast add to our bad habits of eating too many sugary or fattening foods on these special occasions. And you know that we pay a price if we over indulge our sweet tooth.

You know that if we over indulge in eating these sugary delights our bodies will get heavier and larger and our weight rises and if we continue our bodies decline into medical problems such as diabetes mellitus and heart and circulation issues.

Our adorable puppies and dogs enjoy good foods just as we do, but unfortunately, these dessert foods that we love and enjoy cannot be shared with our canine friends.

Chocolate candy bars, cakes, pies, chocolate coated doughnuts or eclairs are treats that we relish. We also enjoy a good cup of coffee to wash down these sweets.

Veterinarians often remind us weight gain in our dogs will invite medical problems to their bodies. Not only would these foods bring about weight gain, but the ingredients of chocolate or cocoa, diet or natural sugars, milk and other dairy products, and yeast ingredients in baked goods, coupled with the caffeine would be extremely hazardous to our four-legged friends.

I know we are tempted when our pooch looks at us with those bright twinkling eyes, tilted head, and excited look of getting a treat, but what he does not know is the danger that lurks in that human treat.

Those delectable desserts would cause stomach aches, bloating, gas, intestinal rupture, and loss of coordination, lethargy, diarrhea, vomiting, seizures, cardiac failure, heart palpitations, excessive thirst and frequent urination, overproduction of insulin, pancreatitis, diabetes mellitus, coma and death. These symptoms can occur within minues of eating or may be delayed a few hours.

Maybe your pooch picked up a very small piece from the floor that someone had dropped. You could correct this situation very quickly. However, if others at the dining table gave these treats, and you knew nothing about it, your pooch’s symptoms would require an emergency trip to the vet and unfortunately, you may get there too late.

Imagine arriving home and discovering that your pet ate a pound of chocolate candies from a box that someone negligently left open. That is exactly what happened to one of my friends. She took the dog immediately to the vet and fortunately he was able to rescue the dog. That was fortunate because she did not know how much time had passed when her pet had finished eating the chocolates.

However, thereafter, the dog needed further treatments to try to get him back to his normal self. Not only did it burden the budget, but my friend paid the emotional distress that her doggie experienced in this medical emergency caused by carelessness.

Help answer the question about dairy product

My girlfriend says chocolate is a dairy product (milk) and a vegetable (cocobean)?
I told my girlfriend if she were pregnant she shouldn't eat chocolate. She then said it was ok because chocolate is a dairy product and vegetable. What do you all think of this?

    You’re amazing.

    you shouldn't make her. We all have our likes and dislikes. In fact some studies have shown that milk can actually cause osteoporosis. There are plenty of other ways to get the calcium you need (spinach is a great source). If you don't like the coconut milk, try soy or rice milk instead. There are plenty of people who live long happy and healthy lives without drinking milk.

    They are considered sweets since they are mainly made of sugar.

    Chocolate can be eaten during pregnancy, especially dark chocolate they say is good for pregnant women… just not too much because of the caffeine. But no, its not a vegetable. She's probably just looking for an excuse to be able to eat it.

    Soy milk is perfectly safe if you must (or you wish to) avoid dairy. If you don't find a brand of soy milk you like (Silk is best for drinking, but any brand will do for pouring over cereal or baking). If soy doesn't do it for you, try rice milk or almond milk. Keep trying out different brands until you find the one you like.

    You can also have soy ice cream–I'm a fan of Soy Delicious Purely Decadent. There's also rice ice cream, but I haven't tried it yet. Sorbets are suitable, sherbets are not.

    Tofutti makes soy sour cream and soy cream cheese; they make products for the lactose intolerant, but not all of their stuff is vegan.

    If you buy soy cheese, watch out for casein (a dairy protein). There are vegan cheeses out there.

    I'm probably giving you more information than you want, but there's more to dairy than just milk. So do read your labels to ensure there are no milk ingredients in your food.

    Avoid milk and anything derived from it (cheese, butter, cream, yoghurt, chocolate)

    You can get a lot of dairy alternatives, it's just a case of finding what you like. There's lots of milk alternatives like soy, rice and almond milk. Keep your eyes out for lactose free stuff, try health food stores. Don't be afraid to eat a tiny bit of dairy by accident, unless you have a very serious intolerance then a little bit won't make you ill.

  8. GENE says:

    Dairy products are products derived from the mammary glands of mammals. Therefore, eggs are not dairy, unless the laid egg comes out of the chicken's nipple.

    Hope that helps!

    You shouldn't have to. My boy was lactose intolerant and I had to stay away from only dairy and he was fine

    Cheese is a good source of calcium, which helps to build strong bones and teeth. Calcium also helps prevent osteoporosis. In 1999, cheese provided 25% of the calcium available in the American food chain, making it an important and readily available source of calcium.

    Cheese also contains a large amount of other essential nutrients such as phosphorous, zinc, riboflavin, vitamin B12 and vitamin A.

    Those of you who have children who are cavity prone might appreciate the fact that many cheeses, including processed American, Bleu, Monterey Jack, Cheddar, and Swiss have been proven to reduce tooth decay. This is in part due to increased saliva production upon eating cheeses, which helps to aid food clearance. Additionally, the milk proteins in cheese help neutralize plaque acids and also help prevent acid demineralization and help remineralization of tooth enamel. For these reasons, it is recommended that cheese be consumed immediately after meals, and as in-between-meal snacks when brushing may not be an option.

    tetracycline binds to divalent cations. these are iron, calcium, zinc, etc. (any atom that has a +2 charge).
    the amount of buttermilk would not be a big deal but there are other sources of calcium and iron in their sandwiches. could bind some of the tetracycline.
