"Lisa Clayton" wrote in message s.com... Our 3 year old female Maltese/Shitzu dog absolutely *LOVES* almonds. Should we let her eat these? They are toasted, unsalted. I only let her have one or two (in small pieces) as a special treat. I've no idea why she enjoys them so much. As soon as she sees me take one out of the jar to eat some myself she goes absolutely bananas and I find it hard to resist giving her a taste. But will stop if they are bad for her. thanks! Lisa I occasionally give my two 4yo BC's Almonds .. and even Cashews. They love love love 'em! Funny thing though my lovely wife says that the cashews go right through them .. as when she's cleaning up the back yard (poo patrol) she noticed the cashews in the stools .. lol! If your dog likes 'em .. and you can't see any side effects .. and they are given as a treat or as a reward for a trick or reaction .. go for it! HTH elZee |

My sister has a bjon who is going crazy with itching. The dog is
practically going nuts with the scratching and so is my sister. Molly (the dog) is on prednesone which helps, but she is so fat now that her legs are giving out.Does anyone know of a soothing cream or any other method of treatment. My sister is so desperate she is considering putting Molly out of her misery. |

My sister is so desperate she is considering putting Molly out of her misery. Has your sister tried getting prescription shampoo for the itching or she could try Selsun Blue (the dandruff shampoo), I have heard this can help. Does she have allergies? If so have they tested to see what she is allergic to? Do you know what kind of food she eats? A lot of dogs have skin problems but there are plenty of options for treatment fell free to e-mail me.

Macadamia nuts are poisonous to dogs, for what that's worth. Good point, dogs have had bad reactions to macadamia nuts, this may be a problem with processing and symptoms include temporary loss of use in the back end, most get better in 1-3 days. It is fairly easy to find info on this subject on the net but I can't find any negative press on almonds so I think it is safe. I have had three vets (due to moving) and none have said it was bad.
