We love sharing parts of our day with our dogs—from midday walks to bedtime routines—our dogs play a special part in our lives every day. This includes meal time, and while most owners stick to a regimented feeding schedule, there is always time for a treat.
All human food should be given sparingly in conjunction with your dog’s regular meals to avoid weight gain and tummy troubles.
You probably already know that chocolate is a big no-no, but what about other meats, fruits, and vegetables? For example, did you know honey is actually a beneficial treatment to help dogs ward off pollen allergies? Or that frozen blueberries can cool your dog off during a hot summer day?
