Why Some Dogs Like Hamburgers

By Lisa Jazmina


If you ask my family or friends, they'll tell you my dog is a carnivore. He'll rip apart anything that's meaty; rib-eye steaks, Angus beef, ground pork, turkey all the meats of the world is my dog's buffet and it's all thanks to me. I love giving my dog meat; anything meaty in my hands, my dog will devour; anything meaty I have for leftovers, my dog will suck it up like a vacuum. It's conclusive that my dog is a carnivore thanks to me. Don't worry, he eats his regular dog food.

Why do some dogs like hamburgers? What is it about these juicy delights that give dogs joy? Hamburgers give them extra protein. Dogs are carnivores in nature. With that in mind, it's obvious that dogs have to have protein in their diet. While hamburger are not in any way a substitute for the right kind of food for the dog, hamburgers provide an "oomph" in the protein boost for a pet.

After days of no success, I finally gave up. There was no away this Husky was going to eat even a single pellet. I was stressed from this. To relieve myself, I went to my kitchen to make some sandwich. I took out a slice of ham, cheese and lettuce. Then out of nowhere, the Husky came mingling around the kitchen, sniffing. I was perplexed by the Husky's action but I still continued with the sandwich making. Then all of a sudden, the Husky went near me and started to paw on my ankle. I stopped and said to him, "Uhhh what do you want dog?"

Having a burger with their meals can add a zest of flavor. Maybe they find their dog foods dull so why not give them a burger? It encourages them to have more nutrients. While it is good to see some dogs liking hamburgers, you should never heed to their interests in burgers. You always have to re-consider the burger. All burgers are not equal so that's why it's best not to give all the burgers you see. Some burgers may be harmful to dogs. It can cause the dog to vomit or to have blood in their stool. It may cause a dog health problems. Some burgers may have ingredients that are a no-no to them. But there are some burgers that are good for dogs but only in moderation. It's obvious that you can't feed them cooked burgers or anything mixed with toxic ingredients like onions. There are also some burgers made with all-natural ingredients which can be good for the dog to absorb.

Depending on the factors and consideration, you may or may not give your dog patties. Always think about the kind of patty you'll give. If you want to let your dog live a healthy and happy life, always give him the best food that will nurture him without any complications.
