    I really like this infographic :) I like they didn't only add the yes and no list of things dogs can eat, but they went a little beyond and decided to list not only what they can't or can eat, but also the things they can eat in moderation, as well as the ''not recommended''.

    This is so cute and sweet. No nuts? I meant to check that out as I like to share most things I eat with them and I like to munch on nuts. Much of the other things I knew about. I think needs some beer to knock her out sometimes though.:)

    What would beer do besides make them drunk?

    Aww, I love this little guide. It's adorable, simple, funny and informative:) Thank you very much for sharing it. I'm happy to hear that dogs can eat a lot of carrots and fish. Homer loves them:) I think I'll try to give him some lettuce. Maybe he'll like it.

    You are welcome! I am glad you found this info graph useful! I actually like info graphs because they are so colorful, and the most important ideas are condensed, so it's easier to remember them :D

    Well, alcohol is toxic to dogs. I guess an alcohol-free beer wouldn't hurt a dog at all, but alcohol can really damage a dog. They don't process alcohol like we do.

    That's true. Graphs are great, I like them very much. And I'm always happy to learn something new about dogs. This is one of the reasons why I spend so much time here. This forum is very informative:)

    Hhahaha! He really sounds like it. By the way, I recently read an article about all the foods that can be poisonous to dogs and cats, the list is so long! I'm glad I am not a dog, because then I'd not be able to eat a lot things! Like for example grapes and cherries!!! It's mind blowing something we enjoy so much can actually kill our pets. Dogs can only eat 3 kinds of berries :( http://www.naturipefarms.com/3-types-berries-dogs-can-eat/

    Haha, I'm glad I'm not a dog too. They love eating so many disgusting things and can't eat the most delicious foods like cherries, salty snacks and fries:p
    Thank you for sharing this link.

    You are welcome, I also made a thread about it, just in case other dog owners had no idea about it. I think not many people know that about dogs and berries.

    Oh I love this chart! Just a fantastic one to print out and pin it on the refrigerator for a quick glance. I haven't tried to give Capone anything else besides carrot and apple pieces yet. I am avoiding giving him human food since I don't know for sure what is safe and what is not safe. This is so good to have.

    Yeah, I like to keep that kind of info graphs handy :) You never know when you are going to need that info, and they actually look very pretty on the fridge, specially if you print them in full color :)
