Is it safe to give my dog bananas? Are they a healthy and good treat?

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Both those fruits are fine. Just do not feed apple seeds. My advice is everything in moderation. Not every dog is the same and any food could cause tummy upset. I hope this helps and have a great day!

Banana is fine to give Buddy as an occasional treat, but I would not give it to him daily. It's most important that his diet consists of a puppy formulated food so he grows properly. I will put a link below that lists fruits that are safe to give him as an occasional treat (one or twice a week in small amounts). I hope this helps! http://www.akc.org/content/health/articles/fruits-vegetables-dogs-can-and-cant-eat/

Yes, it's okay for a 2 month old puppy to have small bites of apple and banana as an occasional treat. I would not recommend giving large amounts, as this may upset his stomach and cause some diarrhea.

No it is not at all. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

Hello and thank you for reaching out to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Potatoes are safe for dogs to eat, as long as they are cooked and given in small pieces so that dogs do not choke on them. Potatoes are high in carbs, but provide vitamins including vitamins A and C, as well as iron. Pieces of cooked potato can be given as a small snack, but should not constitute a large portion of your pet's diet. I hope this is helpful!

Yes, you are allowed to give her a slice of apple to play with and eat as a treat. Other nice treats would be boiled carrot pieces, cucumber pieces and melon pieces, green beans. Definitely healthier than commercial treats,

Hello, This question's answer depends on what prescription diet he is on and for what reason he was prescribed the diet. Most prescription diets need to be fed completely alone for them to work effectively, but some can be supplemented with treats. Your vet can also answer the question since they know why they prescribed the diet. If you resubmit with the information I asked, I'll be happy to let you know if its an absolute no-no or something to double check with your vet first. :) Hope this is helpful!
