Dogs are food lovers and a free run that turns into a picnic raid is probably their idea of heaven. Picnic raiding can be unsafe if your dog has a sensitive stomach, allergies or intolerances as human food generally isn’t fit for canine consumption, particularly poisonous items such as chocolate and grapes which could result in a hefty vet bill if consumed. Consider free-running in different areas that you have access to that could potentially be picnic-free. Take high-value treats with you on your free-run – their very own picnic. Recall your dog as soon as you spot a picnic and pop them back on their lead until you’re a safe distance away and hopefully, they’ll never know about what could have been. Distract your dog with a ball or noisy toy before they spot the picnic.

We seem to live in a world where everything is dangerous; to us and our doggos. I am sure i’m not the only one guilty of slipping the dog a little piece of whatever I am eating, but do we every really consider the impacts that can have on our little bundles of joy. Obviously, it goes without saying that human foods aren’t great for our four-legged friends, but given in small quantities they will cause no harm and can be enjoyed as treats. It is important to remember that some common picnic foods like grapes and chocolate are very poisonous for our babies, so we would suggest doing your research and leaving anything DANGEROUS at home, just to be on the safe side in case your pup does get hold of it. Foods that can be enjoyed by you and your dog at a picnic: Blueberries – perfectly bite sized to enjoy whilst on the walk as a healthy snack for you and juicy for your doggy. Banana – again, great to eat on the go…oh, and to share.

While I want to encourage you to spend more time outside with your pooch and your family, keep in mind that when picnicking, there are several dangerous food items that can pose a threat to your dog when accidentally ingested. Before you set that picnic blanket down, make sure your dog can’t get into the following dangerous or poisonous table foods: Grapes and raisins Baked goods containing xylitol Corn on the cob Peach pits Fatty table snacks or bones. Anything containing grapes and raisins are considered to be poisonous to dogs. Xylitol is a natural sugar substitute that is poisonous to dogs. Foreign Bodies: Corn On the Cob and Peach Pits While corn on the cob and peach pits aren’t poisonous per se, these two common picnic items are very dangerous to dogs. Leftover BBQ bits and bones should never be given to your dog… especially if you own an overweight dog or one of these breeds: Yorkshire terrier, miniature schnauzer, or Shetland sheepdog. When in doubt, keep these picnic items out of reach.
