Re: Its or It's?
It's (it is) its (the dog's) food . Is that correct?

"It's its food" is correct, but it's a little tough to say.

That can't be right. That is because "it's" in that phrase means "belonging to it" and thus it should be "its". Originally Posted by xpert

Because it's a pronoun (*wink*), "it" follows the same forms as other pronouns: he's, she's and it's; his, her and its. "Its" is closest in actual form to "his," and surely no one would be tempted to include an apostrophe in "his" - even in a culture wherein the current U.S. President's name has drawn more than its (*wink*) fair share of apostrophes.
