What foods can’t we give to dogs?

Some human foods are also safe for dogs, but not as daily food, but occasionally in small quantities. Here are some:

Carrots

Carrots are a healthy food for dogs. Chewing carrots can help remove plaque from your teeth and maintain good dental health. Carrots are also a good source of vitamin A, which is beneficial for your dog’s immune system, skin and coat. However, too much vitamin A can be toxic, so give your dog carrots sparingly.

Simple

Apples provide many important vitamins for dogs, including vitamins A and C. Apples are also a good source of fiber, which can help regulate your dog’s digestion. However, eating rotten apples can lead to alcohol poisoning

Rice
White rice can cause increased blood sugar levels, so some dogs with diabetes should only eat it in small amounts.

Lactate

Dairy products such as milk, cheese and plain yogurt are safe for dogs in very small quantities. Consuming too much dairy can cause digestive problems. This is because some dogs have low levels of lactase, a digestive enzyme that breaks down milk sugars. Lactose intolerant dogs should not eat dairy products. Signs of lactose intolerance include diarrhea or vomiting after consuming anything containing dairy.

Fish

Salmon, shrimp and tuna are safe for dogs and good sources of protein. They are rich sources of omega-3 fatty acids, which can help maintain your dog’s immune system, coat and skin health. The B vitamins in shrimp can also help maintain your dog’s digestive system and promote healthy blood circulation. It is important to cook fish before giving it to your dog, as it may contain harmful parasites.

You can

Plain, boiled, unseasoned chicken is a good option when a dog has an upset stomach. It is a light food, easy to digest and with a taste that they like.

Peanut butter

Avoid giving dogs peanut butter with added sugars or sweeteners. Unsalted peanut butter with no added sugar or sweeteners is safe for dogs, but in moderation. It contains many beneficial elements, including vitamins E and B, healthy fats and proteins. However, it is crucial to check that peanut butter does not contain a sweetener called xylitol, which is highly toxic to dogs. Anyone who suspects their dog has ingested xylitol should contact a veterinarian immediately.

Popcorn

Plain popcorn, without salt, butter or sugar, can be a nutritional treat for dogs. Popcorn contains minerals like magnesium, phosphorus, and zinc, all of which are important for keeping dogs healthy. Make sure they don’t eat unopened corn kernels, as they may choke on them.

Pig

Pork cooked without seasoning is safe for dogs. However, they should only eat small portions of pork, as the high fat content is difficult for dogs to digest and can cause inflammation and pancreatitis. Refrain from giving them sausages, they have a high salt content.

Turkey

Cooked turkey is good, but it should be plain and unseasoned. Many commercial dog foods contain turkey because it is a good source of protein. Before giving cooked turkey to a dog, remove the fat first. Too much fat can cause pancreatic problems in dogs.

Blueberries

Blueberries are safe for dogs to eat and are a rich source of fiber, antioxidants, and phytochemicals, which can provide numerous health benefits for dogs. Research from 2012 suggests that antioxidants may help improve age-related problems in older dogs.

Banana

Dogs can eat bananas, but rarely, in moderation. They are rich in magnesium, important for good bone health. Because of their high sugar content, bananas should be an occasional treat for dogs.

Cucumbers

Cucumbers are a safe, low-calorie snack for dogs and can be a good option for those who are overweight. Cucumbers also contain many vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin K.

Green beans

Plain green beans are a good and healthy snack for dogs. They are a source of protein and also contain calcium, iron and vitamin K. Dogs can eat green beans cooked or raw. However, avoid seasoning and chop the beans first to prevent them from choking.

Melon

Dogs can safely eat the core of watermelon, but without the seeds or rind. Remove all seeds first, as they can block the intestines. If they also eat the peel, it may give them an upset stomach, so remove it. Watermelon has a high water content, so it can help hydrate your pet. It is also a good source of vitamins A, C, and B-6.

Harmful food for dogs

Some foods can cause discomfort or even serious medical conditions in dogs. Anyone who suspects their dog has eaten something toxic should consult a veterinarian immediately.

Avocado

Avocados contain a substance called persin, which is toxic to dogs and can cause vomiting and diarrhea.

Cherries

Cherry pits contain cyanide, which is poisonous. They can also pose a choking hazard or block the intestines if a dog swallows them.

Chocolate, coffee and caffeine

Never give dogs chocolate, coffee, or anything that contains caffeine. These products can cause vomiting, abnormal heart rate, seizures, and sometimes death. There are chocolate treats for dogs, but they contain a special chocolate substitute that is safe to eat.

Raisins and grapes

Grapes, raisins and currants are all highly toxic to dogs. Even small amounts can cause kidney failure and, in some cases, death. Also, don’t give your dogs products that may contain these foods, such as fruitcakes or other biscuits.

CITRUS FRUITS

Citrus plants and their fruits, such as oranges and lemons, contain citric acid. In larger quantities, citric acid can lead to depression or stomach problems in dogs.

Cinnamon

Although not toxic, large amounts of cinnamon can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and liver disease in dogs.

Coconut-based products

Dogs should not drink coconut water due to the high level of potassium. A person should also limit the amount of coconut oil or meat given to the dog, as these foods can upset the stomach.

NUTS

Avoid giving nuts to dogs. They are poisonous to dogs and can cause muscle weakness, vomiting, lethargy and hyperthermia. Furthermore, they can suffocate.

Ice-cream

Dogs should not eat ice cream due to the high sugar content. Additionally, some dogs are lactose intolerant.

Onion, garlic and chives

Onions, garlic and chives contain substances called organosulfoxides, which are toxic to dogs and can cause vomiting, diarrhea and stomach pain. Organosulfoxides can also cause anemia in dogs.

Raw or undercooked meat

Dog food containing raw meat can pose a health risk.
Raw meat may contain Escherichia coli and Salmonella, which are types of bacteria that can cause food poisoning. Cooking kills bacteria. In recent years some manufacturers have promoted the benefits of raw meat for dogs and some packaged products contain it. It is important to understand that raw meat diets pose health risks to dogs and cannot provide a complete nutritional balance.

Oua crude

Eating raw eggs can lead to a biotin deficiency in dogs, which can affect the health of their skin and coat.

Savory foods

Too much salt can cause excessive thirst and urination in dogs, as well as sodium ion poisoning. Symptoms of this poisoning may include: vomiting, diarrhea, involuntary shaking or shaking
high fever, convulsions

Xylitol

Xylitol is a sugar substitute that manufacturers add to a variety of human foods. However, xylitol is extremely toxic to dogs. It can cause liver failure and dangerous blood sugar levels.

Bread dough

While bread is generally safe for dogs, dough can be very dangerous. The yeast in the dough can cause it to expand further in the dog’s stomach, causing bloating and leading to dangerous complications. Yeast also produces ethanol and this can cause alcohol poisoning.

Alcohol

Never give your dog alcohol or products containing it. Alcohol is very dangerous for dogs and can lead to a number of serious complications, including coma and death.
These foods should very rarely be fed to dogs. They should be given special, pre-packaged dog food that contains an optimal mix of nutrients necessary for their development.
