Healthy snacks for dogs

A reward or a tasty snack in between meals; you may want to spoil your dog with a treat every now and then. But you don’t want to increase the risk of weight gain. Here are our tips for tasty yet healthy snacks for dogs.

Should I be giving my dog treats?

Of course, you are feeding your dog its daily portion of food. A food calculator allows you to determine the right amount for your dog. This is important, because you want to avoid overeating which would cause overweight and the need to lose weight. You can give your dog some snacks as a reward or a treat in addition to its regular diet. When spending a lot of time training your dog and using treats as a reward, make sure the treat isn’t too big and doesn’t contain too many calories, as you will probably be giving your dog more than one treat. Feel free to give it a slightly more sizeable treat when using it as an incidental snack in between meals.

What to keep in mind when giving your dog treats?

You should keep some things in mind when it comes to feeding snacks to your dog. As mentioned above, the reasons and frequency matter. Treats used to reward your dog while training it, should be smaller than a snack in between meals. The age of your dog is important as well. Some snacks are suitable for all ages, but others are not ideal for pups or older dogs with reduced kidney function. Another factor to keep in mind is how active a dog you’ve got. If it gets a lot of exercise, an extra snack might be a good idea. And finally, take the dog’s size into account as well. Large dogs eat more than small dogs; choose a smaller snack for your small dog, or break it up into pieces.
