When Not to Feed Your Dog Carrots



Fruits and veggies seem like a safe option for dogs when it comes to sharing a people snack. However, it’s important to know that some fruits and veggies aren’t safe for your dog. For instance, don’t feed your dog carrots if your dog has diabetes or borderline high blood sugar. Carrots are high in sugar and could hurt your dog instead of be healthy for him. In addition, avoid feeding your dog entire apples. If you want to feed an apple, pear or other seeded or pitted fruit then cut it up first and toss the seeds or pits. The seeds or pits contain toxins like cyanide that could hurt your dog if ingested. Another veggie to avoid is tomatoes. Your dog can eat the actual tomato but avoid any leafy greens or stems as this could also be toxic. Please contact your experienced vets Lewisville TX before feeding your dog something new like fruits and veggies.
