Coby is our little vegetarian!!! He is the only one of the three that loves carrots and apples!!! Today he had a nice treat – apple!!! Below is a list of healthy and unhealthy snacks for dogs:
Healthy:
- Apples – without seeds or core (apple seeds contain chemical compounds that are poisonous to animals)
- Blueberries
- Strawberries
- Watermelon – without seeds
- Cantaloupe
- Frozen bananas
- Green beans
- Carrots – raw or cooked
- Sweet potato – cooked, cubed or mashed without butter or seasoning; regular potatoes are also good, but in limited amounts since they are high in sugar and can increase weight
- Squash, zucchini
- Lettuce
- Spinach
- Popcorn – unsalted and unbuttered
Unhealthy:
- Grapes and raisins – contain chemical compounds that are toxic to dogs
- Garlic and onions – both have chemical properties that can be toxic, and even life threatening to dogs and cats
- Tomatoes
- Avocado
- Mushrooms – particularly wild mushrooms
- Fruits with pits, such as peaches, cherries, and plums – in some cases the pit can be toxic, or can simply present a choking hazard
- Nuts – particularly macadamia nuts, which are toxic to pets

Add pumpkin to your “good foods”. It is the magical cure for dogs. If they have an upset tummy, give them some plain, cooked, pumpkin with their food. Works miracles. 🙂

I never would have though to give dogs most of those items for snacks. Great list because I’m sure many don’t know about the healthy and unhealthy ones.
