quick question—can Bella munch on some tofu, or is that a no-no for dogs? We're chilling on the couch, about to dig into some stir fry, and she’s giving me those puppy eyes. Not sure if this is dumb, but is this a thing?

Hey! No worries at all—it's great that you're checking before sharing with Bella. Tofu isn't toxic to dogs, so a small bite here and there is generally okay. Just keep it plain and unseasoned, and consider it an occasional treat. Dogs don't digest soy as easily as we do, and some spices or sauces in stir fry can be a problem.

Here's what to watch out for:

• If Bella gobbles down a lot, she might experience some digestive upset like gas or diarrhea. Just keep an eye on her stool and comfort after her snack.
• Watch for any signs of allergies, like itching, redness, or increased scratching, since some dogs can be sensitive to soy.
• Emergency symptoms would be more severe: trouble breathing, vomiting, diarrhea that doesn't stop, or any swelling. Those would need more urgent care.

For now, give her a little water and monitor how she feels. If she starts showing any concerning symptoms, dialing the vet is smart.

Remember, it's all about moderation, and those puppy eyes are hard to resist!
