to be disgusted that DP let the DC eat dog biscuits

[memoo]

I know I am really but ewwwww

I used to eat those please do note the 'used to'

DD 11mo got hold of the dogs kibble, straight out of the bowl, the other day when I had taken my eyes off her for about 2 seconds and shoved lots of them in her mouth then toddled off as I ran after her

They will eat anything wont they!!!!

Ah don't worry I used to eat Cat Crunchies, doggie chocs and dog biscuits as a child and it hasn't affected me

oh well. could be worse. you could hear crunching, rush to them, force open their mouths and pick out bits of snail.

Or you could look over, wonder what that black stain around their mouth is, and then let out a wail when you realise it is slug.

Mine have also tucked into cat food.

And cat litter.

After a while you start thinking ah well, at least it's protein. (or roughage, in the case of the cat litter)

It shouldn't hurt the child if it doesn't have anything the dog food (over a year ago???) had from China. What was it? Melamine?
Remember all the recalled dog foods? and cat foods too.
Disgusting but yes children will put all sorts of things in their mouths unless they are taught that it is not food. They explore everything with their mouths too. Therefore surfaces need to be cleaned regularly to make sure there aren't germs that will harm them.

YANBU.

He let them eat them? Or they grabbed some and put them in their mouths while his back was turned?

If he let them, then that's gross and my husband would be in deep shit.

At least it wasn't a suasage roll form Greggs.

Now, that would have been awful.

they are 7 and 9! he had some in his hand, the DC asked to try them so he let them!

If it's straight out of the bowl complete with dog slobber then no, that's not a nice thought.

Pristine ones out of the pack I wouldn't worry about, in fact I'd congratulate myself that they had ingested something vaguely nutritious for a change (DD is a v fussy eater).

oh i used to eat these too
never did me any harm

That's quite funny really.
They're not barking now, are they?

I'm sure I saw on tv once a man whose job was taster for dog food company. All the foods are tested by humans, I'm guessing they are safe for kids, no added salt for one thing!

My DD goes mad for cat biscuits, it's quite disgusting!

You cook em a perfectly good Sunday dinner with meat and veg, the refuse to eat half of it but then will happily eat bone shaped dog biscuits. Go Figure!

I also used to eat those as well

Could be worse - I went off to cut some grass for the guinea-pigs the other day and came back to find DS drinking from their bottle!

if they were spillers shapes or similar I wouldn't worry they won't hurt them

i used to eat dog biscuits - red ones were yummy

never did me any harm

WOOF and wags tail xx

there are worse things to eat, ie worms in garden etc

OMG! I used to LOVE dog biscuits when I was little. I used to eat them at my Grandmas house .

my parents thought I was barking . Still let me do it though!

Isn't this how most people wean their children?

HEY YOU KNOW WHAT TO SERVE DP AT DINNER TOMORROW! he he ha ha evil cackle!!!

It doesnt hurt. Good source of protein.
I ate dry cat food and my sister ate wet dog food. She ate spiders and I ate snails. Neither of us were ever sick.

I used to love going to my grandparents house because they had dog biscuits. They were all lovely pastel colours and tasted lovely!

I used to eat cat biscuits by the handful when I was a kid.

My parents thought it was a little odd but never stopped me! I wouldn't think they've got anything harmful to people in them or we wouldn't feed them to out pets

Wet dog food would be a lot, lot worse.

I once tried Bonios (partly boredom, partly to see why my dog ges crazy for them) and they have no flavour at all.
