Treats that don’t Pack on Pounds pt.1

Fruits and Veggies

There are many options available to owners who love to pamper their pets and show their affection with food.

Fresh fruits and veggies are the perfect treat for those of us owners who love to feed our pets.

I personally love to feed my dog:

• Green Beans
• Carrots
• Cucumber
• Squash/Zucchini
• Tomatoes
• Apple
• Pear
• Blueberries
• Banana

There really is no limit to the fruits and veggies you can feed your dog. Well there is a couple that you shouldn’t feed…

· Grapes

· Raisins (dried grapes)

· Onion

· Avocado

You shouldn’t feed your pet these because they cause pretty severe kidney damage. This doesn’t mean that your pet will die if they eat 1 grape or raisin, however as a long term snack or if your dog goes on a grape eating bender it can be fatal. Avocado is not toxic in any way, it is just very fatty and can cause diarrhea.
