Beer for dogs

So I've heard of some people giving their dogs beer during a keep (mainly in south america). What is the purpose for this? Does it boosts recovery time?

 

human athletes arent supposed to drink while in training why the hell would you give a dog acohol at any time much less in a keep?? I just dont see how that could do anything positive.

 

I had a guy tell me that it keep away worms. I don't drink so I never tried it with my dog.

 

that ranks right up there with saying feeding your dog gun powder and peppers and beating it with a shovel every tuesday makes it a good fighting dog. Dont give your dogs alcohol people.

 

When you give a bulldog bud ice during keep, it makes your dog game...

 

My dogs get nothing but good feed and water, but it seems to me that people are using all sorts of stuff now. Some use honey, others add in garlic, others add in echinacia, ginseng, milk thistle, beer, milk, etc. I can see the others being of benefit, but why beer?

 

dont give you dog beer

 

^definitely, alcohol and caffeine will mess up your dog.

 

yup it will

 

While herbs and other natural food products might have some benefit, all beer is is empty carbs and calories. Aside from the alcohol in it being an issue I see no potential nutritional benefit. I'd love to hear the justification of those who feel beer is somehow part of a good keep.

 

In my country it is an very old saying that sometimes giving your dog a beer was good for the dogs coat.
I would not know i do not give it to my dogs a waste of beer

 

i dunno bout beer but you know what will get em scratchin all night??...............................COCAINE!! :rolleyes::dogtongue:

 

lol in all seriousness if were hangin in the garage or out front drinkin ill pour my boy a few swigs in his bowl and he likes it!

 

neh coke wears out quick should use speed or meth :rolleyes:
But most dogs love beer indeed, i had 1 that even stole my whiskey when i was young.

 

yea jake will knock a beer over for a drink the second you look away.damm acholic dog.

 

funny you say that LWG because me & a buddy were just talking about some folks that showed dogs hopped up on amphedinens.

 

how did they do?

 

they had there fair share of good dogs.

 

so lemme get this straight: these dudes would get theyre dogs spun out on a good one, then go match em?

so when they win what do they credit? the breeding/conditioning or the dope?

feel free to PM

 

not about credit for most sportsmen. odds are whatever your looking across at is on some form of "dope". it is what it is.
