I did an experiment, two chopped with the pastry cutter, 2 chopped with turning both ways in egg slicer. I found the latter to be my preferred method after all. Left the pastry cutter with the ones I did with that. |

Hey, whatever works best for the person making it. I have never tried the egg slicer for egg salad, though I do have one, and never tried the pastry cutter either. I imagine they all get the job done. ![]() Cheri |

You hard boil an egg for the dog? Wouldn't it be easier to just give the dog raw egg? All of my dogs have loved raw egg. |

He won't eat his food otherwise, so I mix the egg in. DH made it home just in time. He had planned to stay and ride it out, but they made evacuation mandatory and I demanded he get the heck out of there regardless. -- jinx the minx |

Egg slicers tend to fall apart in 2-3 years (cheap ones at least) so until I get another, I just hand chop them. Carol -- |

Wouldn't it be easier to just give > the dog raw egg? All of my dogs have loved raw egg. There can be specific medical issues in dogs that require the egg be cooked. Hardboiled can be best then as added fat can be an issue to be avoided. It's a lot easier then to HB a bunch up and pull one out each morning/evening for the dog and mash however you want to for Fido. Carol -- |

We always take her to the vet at the first sign and she either gives a prednisone shot plus an antibiotic, or a spray to stop the itching plus the antibiotic. I wish there was something that would stop it before it starts but the vet says it's common in dogs and a likely reaction to ragweed, but it's miserable for all involved. Anyone else have this problem? Cheri |

The condition is apparently fairly common among pit bull terriers. Apoquel is expensive; but, has been effective in addressing the problem in this 12 year old; she has been taking it for several years and is much improved. Before Apoquel, we did give her Benadryl (vet recommendation) with some, limited success. Dose size was purely guesswork, since Benadryl was people medication. https://www.zoetisus.com/products/do...uel/index.aspx -- Change Cujo to Juno for email. == One of my dogs had Apoquel and it did a good job. -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk |

Keep in mind if the allergy is seasonal, it's apt to be environmental but if it's all the time, it's more apt to be a food. Very different treatment. -- |

Check PetMedMd and you will start to see it. Anything that compromises the immune system tends to avoid raw eggs (and raw anything pretty much). -- |

I've never boiled just 4 eggs... I boil the entire dozen, peel and place them in a covered plastic container and put it in the fridge. Then we use an egg slicer for egg sandwiches, quarter some to place on a garden salad. Once cooked and peeled a dozen eggs is gone in like 2-3 days. |

There are times I make a decision to use eggs before they rot in the shell. |
