Will the starch from a potato skin cause any harm?
I know this probably sounds daft but............when I peel potatoes I peel straight into the kitchen bin, but sometimes the skins miss and Red grovels to eat the bits I drop.I was worried the starch in potatoes could harm him, I'm I right in thinking this or totally wrong?

cooked potato is ok for dogs and that includes the skin (providing it isn't green) but raw potatoes are not good.
