You Say Tomato I Say Tomahto
You Say Tomato I Say Tomahto
All summer long weve been waiting for our tomatoes to ripen and this looks like the week that the garden has started turning red. Tomatoes are high in Vitamin C, beta-carotene and lycopene that seems to always be in the news for its anticarcinogenic, anti-inflammatory and heart healthy properties.
Some dogs wont go near them, but some dogs absolutely adore them. If youd like to try sharing some tomatoes with your dog try some of the below methods:
- Slice and serve - many dogs that wont eat a whole tomato will try it out once the skin has been cut.
- Slice and sautee tomatoes with a little olive oil and mix in with your dogs food.
Just remember a green tomato doesnt belong in your dogs alfredo because green tomatoes contain a high amount of tomatine which can cause severe symptoms in dogs including weakness, tremors and seizures. The green parts of a tomato plant are also poisonous to dogs, so keep Fido out of the garden.
If you want to share a little bounty from your garden, do so in small amounts because tomatoes are also rather acidic and some sensitive stomachs can become upset.
Below are the maximum amounts that should be fed per day:
| 10 pound dog: 1 Tablespoon | 20 pound dog: 2 tablespoons | 40 pound dog: 3 Tablespoons | 60 pound dog: 1/4 cup | 80 pound dog: 1/3 cup |
