[Nfb-krafters-korner] OT Dog Tales

Wed Mar 16 01:01:14 UTC 2016

Since you asked about cornflakes specifically, that should be fine. Don't 
use anything with artificial sugar though. It is harmful to dogs. With a 
guide dog as I see it, the concern is that I don't give anything she is 
likely to encounter out and about. So, if you take your dog to one of those 
cereal bar places, probably not a good idea to give cereal as a treat since 
every morning is suddenly a treat. That's just my opinion. Also, you know 
your dog. I wouldn't give cornflakes because she doesn't tolerate grain. 
Again, what's right for you may not be right for somebody else. So, just 
think about the potential issues and make your decision.

Greg

Hey,
Dani coming out of lurkdom to ask if cornflakes are OK for dogs. My
retired black lab Peggy would probably love this treat.

Thanks.
