How much and how often can I give my dog fruits and veggies as treats?

Yes! You can certainly do that! Good question! For her weight she would need about 390 calories per day. If you cut her food to 1/2 cup that would equal approximately 220.5 calories. Then you would have about 170 calories left over for the veggies and pumpkin. Be sure to count in any other treats/food you give her. It doesn't take much to add on a lot of extra calories to a 17# dog! The other option is to switch her to a "light" or "senior" formula dog food that has less calories per cup. Then she can eat more :) I hope this helps! Best wishes to you and Chloe. She is beautiful!

Less treats are always healthier for anyone, dogs and humans included. It would be better for Chloe to get more calories from a balanced diet then adding in extra treats, so you can give her 3/4 cup of food and three two calories treats :-)

You may want to add some kibble (dry complete dog food) to make up the remaining 60-70% of her ration. I do not think mashing up the vegetables will make a difference. Pate canned food has the same digestibility as any other good quality food. 10 to 15% extras in form of treats is ok provided you only feed 85 to 90% of dog food, ie , your total should be 100% of her daily ration . You can give her boiled carrots/ carrot pieces or green beans as treats.

What healthy treats to give your pup, good job! I would rotate between the greens and pumpkin, and the fruit at night. Keep in mind that too much fiber can make your dog constipated, so it's best to avoid giving her too much :-)

Given that she already gets two tablespoons of pumpkin, adding more produce would be over doing it, but you could occasionally give her one tablespoon of pumpkin and one tablespoon of carrots or beets.

It depends on whether or not he is overweight. If he is overweight, I would stick with the occasional treat so once or twice a day. Another option would be to just give him canned green beans for treats. If he is a normal weight, you may be able to give him a little more. Just be aware of how much you are giving because treats are like small snickers bars for dogs and have a high caloric value per treat. I hope this helps!

No more than 10% of the dog's total daily calories should come from treats. Those two biscuits equal around 7% perfect of her daily calories, which is perfect! It's fine that 15% of her diet is the supplements, treats, and chews, keep up the good work!
