As I have never seen evidence of either I suspect they are not. Remember I'm talking about plain wholemeal dog biscuits, not dried dog food or any other type of dog food, which are completely different things. Also, feeding dog biscuits to children in a nursery might not go down to well with parents in any event, so it's probably not a good idea.

Could you tell me if there is any evidence as to this please. Yours M Taylor I work in a nursery and I have been told not to use dog biscuits for activities because they are harmful to children.

My mom told me that I used to trade the cookie she gave me when I was a child with the biscuit she gave our dog. I don't know if they make them anymore, or who the manufacturer was, but they were an assortment of differently colored, differently flavored (I can't really remember if they had a different flavor) biscuits that were intended to represent a certain type of food (chicken, beef, vegetable, etc.). I am also curious if eating dog biscuits over an extended period of time is harmful to humans. I know that there are certain types of food that are not good for dogs that humans can eat (I believe chocolate is one), and that dogs eat things that would probably make most people vomit (their own poo and grass). To continue with the strangeness of this post, and to offer a helpful suggestion to dog owners who want to curb this type of behavior, my aunt has admitted to sprinkling her dog's piles with hot sauce to prevent her (the dog, not my aunt) from eating them. This admission was made at a Thanksgiving dinner a few years ago. Bon Appetit! I am not a troll, this is the absolute truth and apparently my aunt's method worked. Go figure. Sorry I can't offer any insight into whether or not a steady diet of dog biscuits is detrimental to people's health, but I thought I'd share a similar story. Oh, one last thing - my brother once ate a Snausage on a dare. We're all a little eccentric. Let me be the first to respond – yes, I ate dog biscuits as a child with apparently no ill-effect.
