In this hard economy, folks are again growing their own vegetable gardens. Why not share the vegetables with your Dachshund?

In case, you didn't know, most Dachshunds love raw vegetables. An inexepnsive, low-calorie alternative to packaged treats, veggies load up your badger hound with nutrients, not empty calories.

With a few exceptions your doxie can eat the same foods your grow or buy for yourself. (see below for exceptions).

Carrots (very popular wtih the pooches), Zucchini (your Doxie will love to snack on the slices), Green beans, cucumbers, sweet peppers, eggplant, and tomatoes.

AVOID THESE FOODS FOR YOUR DOXIE:

Avocados, Bones, Cat Food, Chocolate & Caffeine, Fatty & Rich Foods, Fruit Pits & Seeds, Grapes & Raisins, Nuts, Mushrooms (found in your yard - if they are safe for you, they are safe for your dogs), Nutmeg, Onions, Salt.
