Do any of the dog lovers on the forum give their dogs parsley?

I have been reading up on it, and it is suppose to be good for them. Need some feed back.

Thanks

never heard of Parsley but I do give mine carrots and they love them. What is the benefit of Parsley?

Haven't heard of that but I do give them snacks of sliced apples and carrots. I try to make their midday snack healthy. Either a fruit or veg. Never onions or chocolate or macadamia nuts, all toxic to dogs. Also rasins or grapes. If you want to make homemade treats stay away from these. Peanut butter is also a good treat for dogs. Just give them about a quarter teaspoon...they will LOVE you forever :)

I heard dogs should not have garlic as it and onions are both blood thinners and could cause them to bleed out if they ate too much. Parsley is often helpful for bad breath but I did not ever hear about using it with dogs.

When I was in the UK I used to breed and show dogs. Always made sure the dogs had access to all of the safe herbs in their garden. Funny to watch and see them sniff out the one's they felt they needed. I used to also feed them with pulped vegetables. They have to be pulped for the dog to be able to ingest them, otherwise they come out the same way they went in, lol. This is because in the wild they would get their "herbage' from the stomachs of their kills which was already part digested. mine also liked fruit and would steal it if they got the chance, each one liking a different fruit as their fave, but all liked apples. I know you shouldn't feed them grapes, you used to be able to but not now, think it must be insecticide or something.
Parsley is a good herb, look here http://www.caninechronicle.com/Featu...nsey_1108.html

I had heard that garlic was good for them, for fleas or something.
