Is it safe for my puppy to eat pasta or coconut as a treat?

Carrots are ok for dogs to eat, as well as a small amount of coconut. Too much of either could cause gastric upset. I do not recommend letting him eat any of the outside coconut shell as there is a chance it could cause stomach upset, as well as an obstruction.

Coconut water can be given as an occasional treat, but water is the only liquid Mila needs to be healthy. As for the coconut skin, yes it is ok for her to have a little, but again only as an occasional treat and she can never have the husk of the coconut.

Pasta is not toxic to dogs, but it is also not a particularly nutritionally dense food and would be an empty source of calories like a treat. If Sharon has any food intolerance or a sensitive stomach I would not recommend it.

A small amount of coconut milk would be fine as long as it doesn't cause any gastric upset. If you are trying to soften the food you could also try a small amount of puppy milk replacer or just water.

Hello, & thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. If the majority of your pups diet is a good quality puppy food ( at least 80% ), then you can supplement with the sweet potatoes, vegetables (?), & only a very small amount of pumpkin. Pumpkin has a lot of fiber, so restrict this so as not to cause a loose stool. Also, make sure it is canned, or cooked pumpkin, & not pumpkin pie filling. Take care.

A little bit of peanut butter here and there to encourage your pet to either take special medication or behave at the vet is ok to do. However I wouldn't make it a go-to treat because it is very fattening and can also lead to pancreatitis (inflamed pancreas) over time if it is given in excess. Feeding regular dog treats is a better option. I hope this helps and take care of that fur baby.

In minimal quantity it could be fine, but be aware they may cause diarrhoea and stomach upset. It would be best to getting him used to carrots and similar healthy treats which can be then used for training as well.
