Fall/winter special!!!

12/01/2024

In 1958, a biological experiment took place in Czechoslovakia (CSSR at that time), which included forty working German Shepherds with four Carpathian wolves: Brita, Argo, Sarik and Lejdy. Col. Karel Hartl, ('Hartl'), and Frantisek Rosik, ('Rosik'), were the co-founders of the breed. Hartl came up with the idea of using wolf DNA to develop a superior border guard dog that has the hearing, scenting, sight, weather resistance and endurance of the wolf. Rosik, who was known by dog enthusiasts as 'Dedo' (Granddad), had the idea of developing a new breed to become internationally recognized.

It’s rough out there.

Hot dogs usually have you sitting on one side of the fence.

You either like them ... or you don't.

If you have a dog that is a snacker, he might put on a cute face when you fire up the grill ...

But should you be sharing your hot dog with your dog?

If you are, you might want to reconsider. Here are 5 reasons why …

🌭 Nitrates and Nitrites

Nitrates and nitrites are approved by the FDA as preservatives. They help extend the life of meat and fish products. And while they are beneficial in small amounts … too many can be a problem.

Nitrates are more stable than nitrites, and less likely to cause harm. But when nitrates come into contact with your dog’s saliva, they can convert to nitrites.

When your dog eats nitrites, one of two things can happen.

They come nitric oxide, which can reduce inflammation, help the vascular system function and prevent cancer.

OR ...

They become nitrosamine. Which are carcinogenic. Nitrosamines can cause reproductive, developmental and organ toxicity.

🌭 Monosodium Glutamate (MSG)

MSG is an excitotoxin that increases dopamine production. This makes your dog think his food tastes better. It also tricks your dog’s brain into thinking he’s full.

It’s also linked to liver inflammation, obesity and diabetes.

🌭 Artificial Sweeteners

Artificial sweeteners feed viruses and bad bacteria and yeast in your dog’s gut.

Examples of these include …

◾️Sucrose
◾️Fructose
◾️Maldextrin
◾️Sorbitol
◾️Maltrin

And the worst of them all … xylitol.

Xylitol is very toxic to dogs. When he eats it, it stimulates the rapid release of insulin. Which decreases blood sugar. If your dog goes into a hypoglycemic state if can be life-threatening.

(Are you still sharing a hot dog with your dog? Comment below and tell us!)

🌭 Salt

Sodium nitrate and nitrite are common salts in hot dogs. And your dog needs salt. It will help regulate blood fluids and maintain liver, kidney and heart health.

But like people, your dog only needs a small amount.

The National Academy of Science says a 33lb dog doesn’t need more than 200mg of salt per day ...

Some brands of hot dogs can have up to 700mg of salt. So it’s important to take a look at the packaging before you share a hot dog with your dog.

🌭 Choking Hazard

Ingredients aside, hot dogs can be a choking hazard. And if you have a dog that likes to eat fast without chewing his food … he could get one stuck in his throat.

So if you do decide to give your dog a hot dog, make sure you cut it up into small pieces.

If you're convinced and ready to put down the hot dog, let us know ... what meat are you going to try instead?
