Are strawberries safe for dogs to eat?

Spring is here and summer is almost upon us and that means that some of our favorite fruits are back in season, including strawberries.

if you are anything like us, you’re probably looking for treats that you can give to your dog that actually are fresh and delicious. For us, it’s as much about finding natural treats as it is not wanting to waste some of the produce that we are picking up from the grocery store. As someone who loves strawberries and berries all summer long, there are times when you end up buying too many. And that might mean sharing those fruits with your dog.

Of course, just because it is a fresh product that doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s safe for dogs to eat. In doing some research to figure out whether or not strawberries are safe for dogs to eat, we ended up on the Chewy blog. They not only broke down whether or not these fruits are safe for our dogs to consume, but they also talked about the health benefits of different fruits as well.

So, if you were wondering whether or not your dog can safely eat strawberries, read on for more information.

Can dogs eat strawberries?

The answer is that yes, our dogs can eat strawberries! And this is great news. Not only can our dogs enjoy a strawberry, either fresh or frozen, but it’s actually quite good in terms of nutritional benefits.

Not only are these fruits filled with fiber, but they also have omega-3 and enzymes. The enzymes can help with teeth whitening for your dog, the omega-3 is great for their coat and skin, and the fiber is of course great for digestion. All of these things are a benefit to our dogs, and while our dog should only get these berries in moderation, the fact that they are nutritionally beneficial is excellent news.

Honestly, we love the fact that a fruit that we might snack on all summer long is also safe for dogs to snack on. It means that these things will not go to waste.

Are you surprised that strawberries are safe for dogs to eat? Is this good news for anyone who is buying strawberries in bulk? We want to know what you think.
