Dandelions

[JennieS]

Are dandelions ok for dogs to eat? Brutus seems to think they are treats and our yard is a buffet of them.

If they aren't, I have a lot of work to do this weekend.

You know I asked my vet this a while ago... bc Tyson had eaten one... she said nope, they are safe! Now... that doesnt mean go eat the whole field, heheeee...but all should be fine She said they eat those to help their bellies too - like grass.

No they are not toxic to dogs, they will eat them and grass at times, totally harmless, unless of course if they eat too much, it may make them throw up.

Mine never eat them but they like when I blow them in their faces

 

[Miss Lola]

Both of mine eat them like candy! It's their treats when we go for walks!

intereting... my guys have always eaten the grass, but were never interested in the dandelions

I would have to think they are safe since people eat them in salads as such.

I think Walter is part cow or goat… he LOVES to pull the grass up by the roots!!! Lol

Maude is a grazer. As soon as she goes out-she starts eating grass. I thought she watched the donkeys too much!

Oh thank god this isn't just another one if Duchess's quirks. She is on a mission to destroy all dandelions. Glad to hear it is okay/normal
