Human Food For Your Golden
3
A lot of people wonder what type of human food
they should feed their Golden. Even though many
prefer to stick with dog food and only dog food,
there are certain types of human food that Golden
Retrievers love - and is actually good for
them. Goldens crave attention as we all know -
and when they watch you eat it never hurts to
give them a bite - as long as you know what they
should and shouldnt consume with their diets.For
your Goldens health, feeding him foods such as
chicken, raw vegetables, turkey, brown rice,
fruits, and oatmeal are always great. Even though
we think of these type foods as human food,
they are actually good for many animals as well.

All dogs have taste buds and noses, meaning that
they get very excited when they see you with
food. If your Golden Retriever runs to the
refrigerator when you open it up, hes trying to
tell you that he smells something good. Even
though he may run to the refrigerator, he isnt
begging for food as many think, he is simply
wanting to have some real food. Once your Golden
starts to do this, you should give him some of
what he wants. Although most real food is great
for Goldens, there are some that arent quite so
good.

Egg whitesIf you feed your Golden a large amount
of egg white in his diet, he will get a
deficiency in biotin, which is a B vitamin, due
to the amount of avidin, which is a very
destructive substance. If you are feeding your
Golden Retriever egg yolks, you shouldnt worry
as the effects of avidin will be offset by the
high biotin levels that are found in egg yolks.
You can also feed your Golden egg shells as well,
as they contain a large amount of protein. If you
want the best for your Golden - try feeding him
raw eggs - with the shell intact.

Any form of ChocolateWe all know never to
feed chocolate to any type of animal.
Chocolate contains bromine, which is very toxic
to both dogs and cats. Unsweet chocolate is by
far the worst to feed to your Golden, as it
contains a large amount of bromine. Bromine is a
very harmful chemical, one that normally leads
to death of your animal should he be fed any type
of chocolate.

There are other foods out there that can be good
or harmful to your Golden. If you have any
questions, you should always ask your
veterinarian. Your vet will be able to
recommended real food that is beneficial to your
Golden, as well as foods you should avoid. You
can experiment with real food if you like -
although you should never allow your Golden
Retriever to consume any type of chocolate.
