Fidos eating brambles.

Fido has started eating brambles and raspberys straight from the bush ( I guess he has seem me and Estelle doing it).
Just wondered if I should stop him??

My dogs love brambles (blackberries down here)! I let them have a few but too many would cause tummyache!

I know a lot of dogs who eat them and it doesn't seem to do them any harm

Not a problem i would have thought, but like others have said, too many may cause tummy ache or excessive wind......which will be nice for you!

My last dog had a very sensitive stomach and ate loads of berries once, not sure what they were, he blew up like a barage balloon and had to have a liquid parafin enema because they thought there was a blockage......but it was only wind. Apparantly the vet opperating room was not a pleasant place ot be that day! lol!

My dogs love them too and Flynn snuffles around for apples like a pig does for truffles!
They love to pick their own blackberries off the bush as well.

Dingo likes to steal the strawberries. Makes for interesting poop scooping.
