Processed meat/sandwich meat

[Missmoomoocow]

Is it unhealthy to feed a dog on processed/sandwich meat every day (mixed in with dry dog food)?

[RawFedDogs]

There is nothing healthy about processed sandwich meat. It usually has a lot of salt and other chemicals.

Well, think about it, would you eat processed sandwich meat everyday? I think not.
Gotta start thinking about what we put into our beloved pets stomachs.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... is this a trick question? heh. I eat sandwiches just about everyday for lunch... am I going to die? hehe

Or maybe I'm thinking of something different when you say processed sandwich meat..

Uhhhh, I'm so sorry to say this, Postal, but, yes, you ARE going to die. Waaay too many sandwiches. Better get your affairs in order, write up that Will, and make sure there's plenty of chicken leg quarters for Brian. My crystal ball is never mistaken, I'm so sorry to be the bearer of sad news.

Thank you for your comment. I make sandwiches for my husband everyday with processed meat and he's very happy about that. Personally though, I don't enjoy the stuff.

Would you like to suggest an alternative I could add to my dog's dry food in order to 'entice' him?

Why don't you try real, fresh meat added to your dog's food instead? Like when you grill steaks or bake chicken for your own dinner, set aside an un-spiced portion for your dog and mix that in instead.

There is a lot of salt in processed sandwich meats and other bad stuff but I can't remember what the bad stuff is. I used to know. I know there are practically no nutrients in it.

Maxwell's diet is about 10% kibble... little breakfast to get his metabolism going.

Every couple of days, I boil some chicken, beef, turkey, whatever and chop it up and put it in his kibble.

Boiled meat, that's it. No seasoning, no salt, nothing.

Lunch meat is way too salty for our dogs to eat every day. It's also often times seasoned, which can cause stomach upset.

I think if most of us knew what went into lunch meat, we wouldn't eat it.
