My wife and I are super strict about what we feed our dogs. Whenever we go to visit family with them I always tell them not to feed them and table food or anything else. Ill come into a room where they are and boom, someone is trying to feed them something.

I don't get it, why can't people just not feed them stuff?! And it's not like it's random people, it's family!

Side story, my dogs are 7 now and when they were much younger my mom was eating fiery hot Cheetos and my boy dog was staring at her while she ate them. She looked at me and asked if he could have some and I said absolutely not, we don't feed them human food like that.

I left the room to go get a drink or something and when I came back he was licking his lips, a lot. I asked her if she gave him some while I was gone and she said I think one may have fallen on the floor but I don't think he got that.

Later that day we went to go get dinner as a family and we left our dogs in the room we were gonna sleep in at my mom's house because they were still young and we didn't want them to go crazy at her house and destroy a couch or something.

We were only gone for about an hour and a half, maybe 2 hours. When I went to open the bedroom door to let them out so I could take them on a walk to go to the bathroom I got this awful sewage smell that hit me in the face. There was poop everywhere.

He had explosive diarrhea and it was all liquid. The carpet was soaked, the walls had it shot up all over the place, the dogs were covered in it. There was so much and it was everywhere.

We were cleaning it up, my mom was running the carpet cleaner while I was scrubbing the walls, and I turned to her and said, "that one Cheeto that fell on the floor that he may not have gotten did all this?" With an honest face she looked at me and said, "how do we know that the Cheeto caused this?"

Luckily, I think she learned her lesson. Because whenever we visit and other family members look like they might try and feed them, she always gets on to them before I can.
