Well, my vet [who is an extremely good vet, has the best vet hospital in town, and i live in a very nice town.] said a dog shouldn't eat any people food. if you want them to be healthy, they should strictly only eat dog food, and a treat or so every once in a while. my dog still gets ahold of some things off the ground, if they fall, or something, but its just not a good idea. because, you don't know for sure if any of these people are right or not. and what if they say something that could actually harm your dog. so yeah, i wouldnt feed your dog any people food.

oh yeah, and its not good to feed them plums.

Jeanne is correct but you also want to watch and be sure he doesn't eat gum because some has xylitol in it which can kill him.

Plums and other fruits are okay, if he actually likes them... but I wouldn't give him too much, because it might give him diarreah. The only things I know for sure are bad for dogs are chocolate (which can kill them), and chicken, turkey & ham bones (which can splinter in their stomachs).

You should be very careful what you give a dog to eat as they should have a balanced diet especially formulated for them.
However, if you want to give your dog an occasional treat it should be fine as long as you avoid anything in this list.

This gives you all the foods that are dangerous to dogs. The only part of the plum it says not to give a dog is the stone or pip.
