Banana skins...toxic?
Are banana skins in any way toxic or harmful to dogs? My Lab LOVES
bananas. I freeze them skin and all when they get too ripe (to make banana bread with) But it dawned on me that they would make great doggie popsicles! Anyone know? Rainy -- I can take it, I can make it. Like the man that you taught me to be. - Cindy Alexander http://cindyalexander.com

Skins taste awful I think. I don't know that they are toxic to the dogs but
as a precaution I wouldn't feed the skin to him. I've never heard of bananas causing problems but if given in excess they could probably cause loose stools. Barney used to like to eat a bite of banana once in a while but it wasn't his favorite food. Celeste "Raindrop" wrote in message news  Are banana skins in any way toxic or harmful to dogs?

Well you could let them thaw some then peel them. I doubt they'd have to be
completely thawed to use a knife and get off the skin. Celeste "Raindrop" wrote in message ink.net... buglady wrote: "Raindrop" wrote in message news
