What Can Dogs Eat – your quick and easy guide
Dog food in boxes, packets and tins can be pretty dull, and not something we carry around with us all the time.
So when we are out with our dogs, for a day on the beach, a walk in the forest or just visiting friends.
And we only have human food with us, it’s good to know what is safe for our dogs to eat, and what we need to keep away from them.
Each article will tell you if the food you are looking up will harm your dog. If it won’t harm your dog, it will also tell you if it is good for your dog, and how much it is safe for your dog to eat.
There’s some background information on the nutrients in each food thrown in for good measure.

My lab is basically a pig n I should have named him either hoover or Dyson.
So as he “thinks” that he is always hungry I started adding a quarter of a cabbage to each one of his 3 small meals a day as a vet told me that it helps fill them up more as to become less hungry.
He also loves chopped carrots, green beans, mixed veg, tomatos, cucumber, apples, strawberries, bananas and any kind of melon.
As he is slightly on the larger side, as a treat for him instead of feeding him dog treats that won’t be at all healthy towards his weight, I give him a whole carrot and he loves it, I even think that he may think it’s a bone coz he lays down to eat it the exact same way he would a bone lol.
I clicked on this hoping for a list of the foods we could give dogs as treats but can not see where the articles are. It just says it is available.. It would be better if the list we are clicking on to see is actually there or there is a direct click on link. I do not have time to go in and out of every category on the site to find it.
Can I feed celery to my lab?
