We all love to treat our dogs to a tasty snack, but it’s important to ensure we’re giving them something healthy, low-cal and easily digestible for their tummies. Many of the fruits, vegetables and meat we love can make for a simply delicious and healthy snack your pup can enjoy too. Below are a few options that are safe and palatable to share with your dog - Right from your kitchen!
