I have a dog that loves both apples and carrots. I was just preparing a persimmon for myself. She managed to grab a couple of pieces. She must have thought it was an apple, as I had just given her a couple of apple slices. Does anyone know if persimmons are safe for dogs. She certainly thought so. She scarfed down 2 small pieces before I knew it! Beryl Eshom Arelee GSD Davis, CA ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
