Yes, when I microwaved our dog, the little [censored] blew into pieces.
It was pretty funny, my cats laughed too. -

John has an industrial walk in microwave to help with body disposal :P

spammage trappage: remove the underscores to replyI'm going to die rather sooner than I'd like. I tried to protect my
neighbours from crime, and became the victim of it. Complications in
hospital following this resulted in a serious illness. I now need a bone
marrow transplant. Many people around the world are waiting for a marrow
transplant, too. Please volunteer to be a marrow donor:

Depends on the size of the dog.....

Although I agree with you in principle (real dogs are larger than a
breadbox) I'd have to argue that MY dog (a chowhound Labrador) would
figure out how to get in there if there was food left in it.Valient attempt, by the way, to wrest the thread away from the trolls
and back on-topic.Dally

They were banned in Rusia in 1976 for these reasons
After the World War II, the Russians also experimented with microwave ovens.
From 1957 up to recently, their research has been carried out mainly at the
Institute of Radio Technology at Klinsk, Byelorussia. According to US
researcher William Kopp, who gathered much of the results of Russian and
German research - and was apparently prosecuted for doing so (J. Nat. Sci,
1998; 1:42-3) - the following effects were observed by Russian forensic
teams:1. Heating prepared meats in a microwave sufficiently for human consumption
created:
* d-Nitrosodiethanolamine (a well-known cancer-causing agent)
* Destabilization of active protein biomolecular compounds
* Creation of a binding effect to radioactivity in the atmosphere
* Creation of cancer-causing agents within protein-hydrosylate compounds in
milk and cereal grains;
2. Microwave emissions also caused alteration in the catabolic (breakdown)
behavior of glucoside - and galactoside - elements within frozen fruits when
thawed in this way;
3. Microwaves altered catabolic behavior of plant-alkaloids when raw, cooked
or frozen vegetables were exposed for even very short periods;
4. Cancer-causing free radicals were formed within certain trace-mineral
molecular formations in plant substances, especially in raw root vegetables;
5. Ingestion of micro-waved foods caused a higher percentage of cancerous
cells in blood;
6. Due to chemical alterations within food substances, malfunctions occurred
in the lymphatic system, causing degeneration of the immune system=s
capacity to protect itself against cancerous growth;
7. The unstable catabolism of micro-waved foods altered their elemental food
substances, leading to disorders in the digestive system;
8. Those ingesting micro-waved foods showed a statistically higher incidence
of stomach and intestinal cancers, plus a general degeneration of peripheral
cellular tissues with a gradual breakdown of digestive and excretory system
function;
9. Microwave exposure caused significant decreases in the nutritional value
of all foods studied, particularly:
* A decrease in the bioavailability of B-complex vitamins, vitamin C,
vitamin E, essential minerals and lipotrophics
* Destruction of the nutritional value of nucleoproteins in meats
* Lowering of the metabolic activity of alkaloids, glucosides, galactosides
and nitrilosides (all basic plant substances in fruits and vegetables)
* Marked acceleration of structural disintegration in all foods.As a result microwave ovens were banned in Russia in 1976; the ban was
lifted after Perestroika.HTH

It's the old kind, as big as a house.

Just what I told him, except for the "body parts" stuff. I thought
that was OUR lil' secret? Do it again, and I won't let you hide the
pieces, or come over for anymore of my special recipe stew. -

And that was a valiant attempt to be amusingI can't help but wonder how much she feeds her dog?
Forgive me Dalli, but it's not uncommon for those obsessed with weight
loss to also feed dogs on a schedule.My border collie is free fed. She has kibbles available 24/7 and we make
an effort to keep her bowl full.
I have a fully fenced yard with a hotwire around the border so she has a
lot of free running space. She is a VERY active dog.We have trouble keeping weight on her and supplement her with canned
food in the evenings......Your dog might not be so food oriented if it was always available?

Maybe the dogs mother is also a whacko which can't help her doggie diet
much.I'll take this opportunity to thank all those who have confributed to this
thread. It's been great! -

Does anyone have health concerns from using microwaves?
When you read up on electromagnetic fields (cell phones, overhead
wires, waterbed heaters, microwaves) you read everything from the
bizarre to the common 'we dont really know' of how/if the human body is
affected by these. It does seem however that many small studies against
such products gets crushed or gagged and you dont ever hear anything on
the topic again. Always makes me wonder if there is more to it than
'they' let you know. 90% of todays homes have a microwave - would we
all throw them out if they told us they were bad for us? Probably not,
but it would make me think twice about using it for more than reheating
a cup of coffee.
Interesting but not a science journal:

http://www.mercola.com/article/microwave/hazards.htmThanks - Mercola's article is interesting, - even though he is trying to
sell an alternative product this does buttress the case against microwaves.

schedule and lived for 25 years. It's called intermittent fasting. I
don't think she was unhappy, and she was definitely very happy around
the feeding time. -
