There are a variety of fruits and vegetables that are safe for dogs to snack on. Apples are a great choice for your dog to snack on. Apples can also give your dogs something to chew on and keep him preoccupied if you’re eating something you don’t want him to have. What you do want to watch out for, however, are the seeds of an apple. Your dog should not eat the apple seeds as these contain cyanide and can make your dog sick. Instead, if possible, slice the apple and give your dog slices to avoid the seeds. You may also want to peel the apple. The apple peel is safe to eat, but too much can give your dog a stomach upset especially diarrhea. Removing the peel can also ensure your dog doesn’t ingest any pesticides that may have been sprayed on the apples. Click to learn more or call your vets Portland, OR for more information.
