your pet? Certain summer fruits can be
good for dogs! Here are a few good fruit
choices to feed to your pet!
Good Fruit Choices:
- Bananas – Bananas are a great source
of amino acids, electrolytes, minerals, and Vitamins B6 and C. However, bananas also have a moderately high
sugar content. They are a better choice
for working and athletic dogs that burn high amounts of energy. - Avocados – Although the pit of an avocado
contains persin, which is toxic to pets, the avocado flesh is actually safe to
eat. - Blueberries – Blueberries contain
antioxidants, fiber and phytochemicals that can boost your dog’s health! - Strawberries – Strawberries are high
in fiber and vitamin C. They also
contain an enzyme that can help whiten your dog’s teeth. Just be careful and feed them in moderation –
strawberries can be high in sugar. - Apples – Apples are full of fiber
and vitamins. However, you don’t want to
give your dog a whole apple. Slice it up
first instead! - Cantaloupe – Cantaloupe have
beta-carotene which can be good for your pet’s vision. Studies show that beta-carotene may even help
prevent or reduce the growth of cataracts. - Watermelon – On hot days, the high
fluid content in watermelon can help ward off dehydration!
While these fruits are
great choices for your pet, other fruits can make your pet feel sick. Be sure to avoid feeding your dog grapes,
raisins, holly berries, cherries, juniper berries, baneberries, poke berries,
and mistletoe berries. These fruits can
upset your dog’s stomach.
