GROSS It is full of stale meat and skin and bones and gross parts. It is labeled not fit for human comsuption for a reason. Thats the cheap stuff. Maybe the vet type would be safe. Faking it would be safer you never know what bugs he could catch.

one of the premium brands of dog food has an irish stew flavor.  the irritating man (my husband) was working for petco, and when they did their yearly convention, they had cans of it opened for the convention goers to sample.  they actually make it in a factory that cans people food, its that high a quality.

wolf said it was pretty tasty...and he's pretty damned picky about what he eats. 

just my $.02-worth

See ive heard that kind of thing too.  I mean I know its pretty gross but I guess I want the reaction. Im just not that confortable doing it mainly becasue as someone said its not meant for human cconsumpsion.  I think I will improvise see how it goes and then decide what to use next time and buy expensive top end stuff [:D]

thanks for everyones imput :)

Most dog food has fillers that well aren't fit for human consumption. I'd suggest making your own. boil some rice, chicken, vegall... blend till it is smooth. It will be grayish in color and will stink like.... dog food but it will be safe for human consumption. It takes a little time but it seems like it would be worth the effort. [sm=evil.gif] and much safer than alpo. lol just the thought of having my sub think its canned dog food brings an evil grin to mind.

Thanks raven.  I have to say just him thinking it alone is enough for me I really cant wait.  Thanks for your idea [:D]  Can I ask what vegall is ?



Phoenix2raven -> RE: whats what when it comes to eating 'dog' food? (9/21/2007 6:52:08 AM)

Veg all is the canned stuff we used to get from the lunch lady at school.lol You will remember it by the square bits of carrot + green beans + peas I think. Oh the blind fold idea is great especially if you open a can with an electric can opener. Have fun and please let us know how it went.

About 90% of the dog foods I will not even trust the quality enough to feed my own dogs never mind give to a human being


Some of the dog foods that could be safely eaten by humans would include Innova EVO,  Nature's  Variety ,  Canidae, Solid Gold, Orijen as  they are made with entirely human grade ingredients.      another good source to find what  foods that could used is in this link sticking only with foods in the 5 or 6 star categories, the 6 star foods are grain free food,using human grade ingredients  the 5 star includes food with human grade grains they have a seperate listing for dry and canned foods   you would need to search small pet food shops to buy these foods , big pet stores like petsmart does not carry the holistic human grade quality foods

http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/dog_food_reviews/index.php


As far as the wording "nutritionally complete"  goes, means diddly squat when it comes to quality of the ingredients  actually a few years ago a group of university student made up their own batch of so called dog food that was nutritionally complete to prove the point but was total unfit for any living thing to eat , using stuff like old motor oil , rubber , leather  vitamins etc and it met all the guidelines required to list as nutritionally  complete.  all that means is it has met the minimum requirements  for protein, fat , carbs vitamins and minerals,   Purina dog chow, Alpo, science diet,  gravy train, kibbles and bits, Gaines burgers, OL'Roy, ken-l-ration, pedigree, mealtime etc  are some of the worst  I consider unfit for dogs never mind humans.  this article explains why so bad http://www.homevet.com/petcare/foodbook.html

If a dog can eat without harmful affects(barring recent recalls) a human can process the food just as well. Some of the canned stuff doesnt taste to bad, add a little hotsauce and whalla, mexican food;)





MaamJay -> RE: whats what when it comes to eating 'dog' food? (9/22/2007 1:30:50 AM)

Well, here in Australia the better quality dog food smells pretty damn good LOL! The My Dog stuff does anyway. And so when I wanted to pull this trick, I had a can of My Dog meat and veg type from which I removed the label very carefully. (I used that can up straight away on the dogs and made sure it went in the outside bin where sub wouldn't find it). Had a can of "human food" ... Tom Piper Savoury Mince and vegetables. Looks the same, smells very similar. I also took the label off the savoury mince can, and very carefully fixed the My Dog label onto it (I used glue just at the join at the back). The clever trick was actually storing it in the same part of the pantry as the dog food ... but most of the real cans had their labels facing sideways or back (other than the ones on the bottom of the stack, they could face out as I wasn't getting near them!), the fake can had its label facing forwards. So it was very convincing when I casually reached up, took the top can off the stack and opened it, and then dished it into a nice clean doggy bowl. It was such fun watching this boy's face ... W/we'd had such a lovely afternoon playing puppy ... fetch, walkies, heel, pee outside with choccie dog treats for being a good boy (can buy human choc buttons that look just the same as the dog ones) ... he'd drunk out of a bowl once W/we came back in out of the sun ... but I don't think he was expecting din-din! he tried the "It's OK Maam i'm not hungry" line and got told off for being out of character LOL! his fears grew as I placed the bowl in front of him ... you could see the agony of indecision ... finally he ate it. When W/we debriefed later, he said he trusted Me not to do him any real harm ... said it was quite tasty! This was all before he knew the trick LOL! I was very proud of him.

Keep any real doggies out of the way while doing this ... or he may not GET to eat it LOL! Or if your dogs aren't quite that voracious, could make it even more real by serving some into their bowls too and having all the puppies eat together! Another more spontaneous time, I served ex-hub's tea to him as a doggie ... trouble was, it was T-bone steak and I didn't cut it up LMAO! Awwww I am a BITCH sometimes. He managed the chips OK though. Seeing him worry at the bone (he has upper and lower false teeth!) was rather hilarious, though I allowed him to use 1 paw to hold it down as a real dog does.

Have fun!

It really doesn't matter what vegetables you use.You can use peas and carrots. The recipe I was referring to uses a vegetable mix.  It is actually a very good dog/cat food that is better than ANY commercial dog food on the market and its cheaper to make. lol

bottombob -> RE: whats what when it comes to eating 'dog' food? (9/29/2007 10:33:00 AM)

well u can eat it, but!!! it's not prepared like your food,  dogs don't get sick from eating rotten food, IE dead animals found on road, well, what's in dog food that's not cooked out. becareful



RubberWitch -> RE: whats what when it comes to eating 'dog' food? (9/29/2007 11:01:20 AM)

OK, if you're in the UK, look at asda's 'smart price' tinned meats (especially irish stew). if you want to push the play all the way, ask a friend, who owns a dog, to save the labels off the cans for you. relabel the tins, and put them away, ready to dish up. it's the look of disgust as you tip out the gelatenous slop into the food dish that will make it all the more genuine.

To my understanding, Science Diet is compatable and safe for Human Digestion.

If it comes from a can, I'd cook it like spam or meat loaf with some oil, vinegar, and such.



honestsub4real -> RE: whats what when it comes to eating 'dog' food? (9/29/2007 2:24:39 PM)

damn chiaThePet would have this answer, i say whatever floats your boat, it won't kill you, I wouldn't do it, but hey...................to each their own.



BlackKnight -> RE: whats what when it comes to eating 'dog' food? (9/29/2007 2:27:15 PM)

Ok this is something i wish to learn more about and am looking for some useful infomation regarding having your boy/girl/insert your own , eat dog food?

Its something that I wish to incorporate in some way.  I am not at all sure i like the idea of him actually eating dog food for several reason 1, it stinks
                   2, its dog food
                  3, is it safe ?
I like the idea of making him think he is eating dog food by using a substitute, things like tinned stewing steak, my question is what has anyone else used and was it really convincing?
Does anybody have any suggestions or tips about this kind of play ?

Thank you [:)]





I had a sub that wanted to be my pet dog so bad so, I made him eat a can of dog food.
While he was eating it out of a dog bowl I stepped on his head and smashed his face in it.
He never wanted to be my pet again....[:D]

I own a pet supply company. If you buy a good quality dog food it is very safe for humans.

Absolutely NO  WAY not in my book, all it is, is a very overpriced  junk food-- costco's Kirkland premium sells for half the price almost and is of a fair bit higher quality and safer for dogs to eat though even that I would not recommend to feed a human
quote:

Water, Chicken, Liver, Cracked Pearled Barley, Ground Corn, Meat By-Products, Dried Whey, Natural Flavor, Vegetable Oil, Calcium Carbonate, Choline Chloride, Potassium Chloride, Iodized Salt, Iron Oxide, Magnesium Oxide, Zinc Oxide, Ferrous Sulfate, Copper Sulfate, Manganous Oxide, Sodium Selenite, Calcium Iodate, D-activated Animal Sterol, Vitamin E Supplement, Thiamine, Niacin, Calcium Pantothenate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Riboflavin, Folic Acid, Biotin, Vitamin B12 Supplement 

the above is the ingredients in one flavor of science diet canned

Meat by-products  in the label  is the  big problem --- what meat is it, pigeon , buzzard,  skunk ??  when a meat source is not identified, it means the meat has come from a rendering plant , this is the plant that the rotted bloat roadkill is taken, or disease/dead lifestock and even euthanized pet at are take if not disposed of by cremation,  who would want to feed  a feed euthanasia drugs or diseased/ rotten meat??? to animal or human

When I was a kid I lost a dare and ate canned and dry dog food for two days ... It was supposed to be a week but my mom found out and put a stop to it.

It wasn't tasty by any means but it didn't kill me. I didn't get sick either though I imagine you could get sick if you ate it regularly.
