Do you have questions regarding the health of your greyhound? Do you need tips what you should feed your dog? Or do you need advice in curing an injury?
Christmas is almost upon us. Don'feed your dogs that has anything connected to grapes, ie., sultanas, raisins or currants these are highly toxic to dogs and can cause death, by way of kidney failure. Also when feeding breakfast cereal make sure it does not contain any of these.
I cannot believe there are 6 on here that disagree with my thread. For you 6 try to google are grapes toxic for dogs and it will also tell you that sultanas, currants and raisins are the same and how quickly a dog can die from kidney failure.

Carole some people you can help some people need help, well done for letting people who agree know.
I have discovered Sultanas in my breakfast cereal, and although its very laborious in removing them from it, before I feed the dogs, Carole is quite correct, these things ARE poisonous to dogs.

For those (like myself) who feed a natural (BARF) diet being told not to feed "breakfast cereal" is mildly amusing. Not only would I advocate not feeding grapes I'd also suggest ditching the cereal.

Why would you not use cereal for breakfast? I've always fed it with egg, milk, honey and sometimes fish, (pilchards, sardines), works for my dogs!

It's a matter of choice John and whatever works for you and your dogs. Personally I don't believe dogs would naturally choose grain so I don't bother to feed it. Meat, bone, tripe, organs, fish, eggs, bananas, fat and the occasional squirt of honey works for me.

It's a fancy name for a raw food diet - Biologically Appropriate Raw Food. It's gaining in popularity as people discover the benefits to their dogs' overall health and well being.
