I've never liked using the term "people food". In the beginning, food was food, no matter what species ate it. It doesn't matter if homo sapiens just happened to have developed better ways to farm food. It's food!

With that said, I'm a raw feeder so I think any food (excluding known poisonous foods like grapes, avacado, caffeine, and chocolate) is fit for my pup. Some greyt add-ins are:
Meat- any kind. I favor chicken, turkey, duck, and lean ground beef. I don't like pork, in particular, but that's just me.
Fish- Jack Mackerol is a greyt add-in. It does wonders for the dog's skin and coat, although the smell is rather strong. Be aware of high levels of mercury in certain fish breeds, however.
Veggies- pulped or steamed carrots, broccoli, kale, sweet/regular potatoes, squash, celery, parsley, wheatgrass, etc.
Eggs
Organ meat- hearts, kidneys, gizzards, etc.
Plain yogurt

Here are some recipe sites:

Thanks. No to duck I have seen how ducks are when they are hatched I have raised them from an egg to an adult. I eat chickens eventhough I raise them because I am used to eating chick. One of my favs but I breed chickens and ducks but I don't eat my pets . I go out any by chicken from store.

In My opinion I don't know how someone could raise a duck from this to this and then make it into this after befriending it.

I would become a vegitarian if vegies and fruits didn't upset my stomach so much. Maybe it's the acid in them that's what my doctor said
