Shrimp, crab, cuttlefish, octopus, jellyfish, etc. Dogs eat easy to cause indigestion, also do not feed can dogs eat.
Bones. When it comes to dogs, they always say they love to chew bones, but if you need to feed them bones for calcium, cow bones or pig bones are better.
Chicken bones, on the other hand, are not suitable. Chicken bones are brittle and tend to turn into small pieces when chewed, and the tips of the small pieces are particularly sharp, making it easy for dogs to cut their stomachs and intestines when swallowed.
Fish spines are also just as dangerous as chicken bones, so dogs should not be allowed to eat them. However, fish that is canned is less of a problem because the spines are already crispy.
Chicken thighs, chicken breasts, etc. are rich in high-quality protein, but the disadvantage is that it contains too much phosphorus, if you feed your dog with full nutrition special dog food, and then feed your dog other foods should be extra careful. Because it is easy to cause a new nutritional imbalance.

Especially like indoor Scottish Shepherds who live with their families all day long, it’s easy for the owner to feed it cakes and stuff in their free time. For the sake of the dog’s health please don’t do this.
Don’t overdose your dog with vitamin C
Dogs can rely on the meat food eaten in the body to synthesize vitamin C. Therefore, there is no need to feed the dog fresh vegetables and fruits containing vitamin C. Eating too much is also likely to cause indigestion, which should be noted.

Small amounts of onions may be mixed in beef patties, omelets, scrambled vegetables, and many other foods. When taking human food and feeding it to your dog. Carefully check to see if there are onions mixed in with the instrument being fed.
Some foods are not suitable for dogs
