It depends on the food. Regular food vs. kibble is healthier.

We don’t let our dog lick plates. We try to avoid feeding human food since it’s not good for dog’s health.

Agree
Currently have 3 dogs in the house, I don't let them lick out plates nor eat out of any dishes.
They have their bowls, and scraps go there if I ever decide to give leftovers to dogs

Is this normal?
The cat eats on the kitchen table but she wiped it down before we sat down.
The kitchen chairs are destroyed by the cat scratching them.

Just… why?


Look up toxoplasmosis and you will understand.


Huh ?

Toxoplasmosis has no relation whatsoever to the thread topic. Plus, even if contracted it does little to no harm to humans unless another severe condition is present in the human.
