Ellen DeGeneres Adopts A Human Pet Food
SAYS Ellen DeGeneres: “Ours is all human grade. It’s all natural. And yes, you can eat it,” says DeGeneres.”
DeGeneres is bringing out her range of dog food. She says it’s so good that humans can eat it. Or, given the talk of what humans eat, its so bad that humans will eat it.
Question: What do dog farmers in Malaysia feed their livestock?
And is it safe for human consumption, or too good?

Cor blimey guvnor! It’s just like ‘forums’ innit?
This just underlines the points made in our earlier forum discussion.

Will you be hoping that MrsD sticks to just reading the Forums now Duncan, or do you have some sort of “password access only” for subjects that you try to censor her from viewing?

Shouldn’t really mention this here since I’ve recently discovered that Mrs D peeks at Anorak on the sly when I’m out walking the dogs but ……..
Mrs D is not a great chocolate eater but, now and then, she will include a large bar of Cadbury’s Fruit and Nut in the weekly shop - to have with a nice cup of coffee while watching the TV on the Saturday night. Nine times out of ten, however, she forgets having bought the chocolate, and me and the dogs eat it instead.
A couple of weeks ago, she said ‘Can you make me a cup of coffee. And I fancy a couple of squares of that Fruit & Nut in the fridge’
‘F*ck!’
I improvised. ‘Ah, I said. I’m afraid I’ve eaten that. But there’s some chocolate buttons you could have?’
‘O.K.’, she said. ‘That’ll do!’
So I presented Mrs D with a freshly brewed cup of Costa Rican coffee and a handful of chocolate drops I had purchased earlier in the day from Pets at Home.
‘Mmm!,’ she said. ‘These are nice. Bit they’ve got a funny taste?’
I had my answer already prepared.
‘That’s because they’re not real chocolate. They’re made from Carob. I got them from Holland & Barrett Health Food Shop’
‘Gawd! If she ever finds out the truth !!!!!’

They don’t have a high sugar diet, but our vet has a new fangled laser or sonic descaler which does the job in a minute. They do get plaque, I do brush their teeth, and the vet gets the bits I miss
The cost of a descaling is about £85 depending on the dog, mine is £16.
Henry and Harry have lovely smelling breath , but Ranald’s stinks, he does tend to carry half the garden around though .

I’d also like to know why dogs get to have those biscuit things that take the tartar, plaque and other gunk off their teeth and humans get to go to certifiable gits who are licenced to wield nasty implements that’ll do the same thing and charge a packet for the privilege.
Is it that humans know animals have more sense than to let dentists do that to them? I’m thinking of indulging in those biscuits myself and putting the money I save from my next descaling (whatever tf that is) towards buying some decent plonk that has corks instead of screwtops. Mind you, some of the cheap and cheerful stuff could probably take the plaque off my choppers no problem, so maybe that’s the way to go.

That makes sense Carmen but doesn’t explain why a lot of human food is not fit to give to a dog or the visually impaired.

My lot all get skin and gut problems, so have to be particular about their feeding, but at least I do have a choice available.
Anybody elses brood kill for Schmakoes?
I also have gut problems, and can no longer stuff with reckless abandon, lurve crisps, BUT arrghh the next day or two I pay, and cheese is a periodical hazard too, but now and then just have to have a slump of brie or camembert falling off the cranberry bread and to hell with the gall bladder

I once asked my vet (a good humoured Scotsman with 23 dogs and 28 cats ) about what he fed his brood on.
“Awww fuck,” came his typically laid back reply “whatever’s buy-one-get-one-free at Morrison’s”
Since then I’ve stuck to anything mid-range yet affordable, providing the fussier of the three will eat it. The labrador will, of course, eat anything; so no problem there.

I had a cat who used to love cheese and yunyun crisps. And scallops. I busted her on the kitchen counter once while she was mowing her way through the main ingredient for that night’s dinner…did you know cats can purr fit to bust and eat at the same time? Coordination or what?

Excuse me June and Karen - but I am stuffed to the gills with additives, colourings, flavourings, sugars, salts, beer and smokey bacon crisps. That’s good eating plus the 5 food groups are covered (sometimes me covered in the 5 food groups) and a couple extra for good measure.
Dog food? Pigs arse. I’ll have some of that too.

My dog likes a beer and a packet of smoky bacon crisps.

Probably too good, not stuffed to gills with additives, colourings, flavourings sugars salt etc.
My dogs have a very healthy diet and just drink water, unlike me…
