Default Eggs for dogs

I've been adding a little of this and that to my dog's dry food as an
enticement to get them to eat it. I was putting about half a can of canned
food in there, but have to be a little more frugal. I use kitchen scraps of
meat, but cut fat off, and don't give them anything that has been peppered.
Today, I had run out, so scrambled two eggs and mixed it in. They seemed to
like it. Last evening, they had some left over salmon in their kibble.

Other than that it gives the Lab eye burning flatulence, are cooked eggs
good to give to dogs?

Well, no scientific evidence but it's never seemed to do my dogs any
harm. Scrambled eggs is my dogs' traditional celebratory post-flyball
tournament supper. When I get the skillet out they know what's coming
and are right there, underfoot, waiting. Since allowing the eggs to
cool is pretty much out of the question I go ahead and spoon them over
their kibble then add a splash of skim milk to their bowls to bring them
down to a safe temp for gobbling.

I've fed every dog I've had both raw and cooked egg. My keeshond used to
love raw egg over lightly sauteed beef, my lab and foxy x love scrambled
over braised steak and fried ham and chicken.
I love their little drooling faces as they watch wide eyed at me cook it and
they actually get extra excited the 2 or 3 times a week I add the egg.
Sometimes i put some grated cheese in their dinner and they do wheelies over
that. They're such grateful little things.

I have fed my dogs eggs and they seem to like it. I usually add
(every now and again) some cottage cheese. It is suppose to be good
for their coats. Also, in the morning, I give my dog a spoon of
canned pumpkin (100% pumpkin), it is suppose to help keep her weight
down. These foods have been suggested by our vet and have been
working very well for several years.

Don't cut the fat off. It's good for dogs. And raw is better than cooked.

Salmon is a great food for dog. Kibble is not.

Cooked eggs are good but raw is even better. Be sure to put in some egg
shell too.

We have a ritual. I go and get their dishes. "Wanna eat?" Ears perk up.
Take dishes to kitchen, and when chopping additives, I give them a piece or
two, making them salivate even more. By the time I take the dishes back to
the laundry room, they're more than ready to eat. They have this wooooo
woooo yodel they do when they are ready to eat, especially the Lab.
