We love to share food with our dogs, and since vegetables are healthy for us, we often assume they’re healthy for our pets too. In fact, there are some fruits and vegetables that are toxic to our dogs. We must be careful. The right choice is very important. This is our list of vegetables to keep your dog happy and healthy:
Broccoli makes a great snack for pups. Remember, to serve human food sparingly-even the best vegetables, if eaten by your pet in huge amounts, can cause stomach problems.
Celery is rich in many vitamins and minerals: vitamin A, vitamin B, and vitamin C, and calcium, potassium, phosphorous, iron, and sodium. This vegetable improves heart health and can lower blood pressure while helping to fight cancer. Bonus: celery freshens doggie breath!
Bok Choy contains calcium for healthy, strong bones and teeth, and is good for the heart while protecting against cancer. This low-calorie veggie is packed with vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin K, and potassium. What is bok choy? It’s a type of Chinese cabbage with thick white or green stems filled with water and green leafy tops.
