What Dog Treats are Good for Dogs?

There’s nothing better than treating your doggo friend to some dog treats, either as a reward for good behaviour or simply because you can’t help yourself!

However, one of the most common questions we get asked is “what dog treats are good for dogs?”

We all know it’s important to find the balance and keep our furry partners in crime, healthy and happy! So, we decided to take a look and list a few favourites in our house.

 

Apples

Apples, or apples cut into smaller slices (especially for puppies) are perfect as a “good dog treat”.

They’re tasty, packed full of fibre, and have the vitamin-goodness you would expect!

Just remember to remove any seeds and the core before serving to your furry pal.

 

Vegetables

Similar to apples, fresh vegetables can be a nice little treat and provide some variation for your dog’s diet.

Raw vegetables will be more than fine for most but, again similar to giving them apples, consider cutting anything up into smaller more manageable sizes depending on the size of your dog…and just how quickly they try to eat everything in sight!

 

Peanut Butter

A quick scroll through YouTube or Instagram will tell you all you need to know about how much dogs and pups love peanut butter.

Not only is it a good source of protein (for us and them), it’s also full of all the good stuff that our dogs need. Just be 100% sure you don’t give your dog a version with additives, sugar, salt, artificial sweeteners etc.

If you’re not sure, double check!

 

Lean Meats

We all know our doggie friends love juicy meat dishes, and as a treat this is more than suitable as a good treat.

Just remember, lean meats generally mean chicken, fish and red meat. All of this should be unseasoned, without any sauces or spices, and cut into manageable pieces as usual. Always avoid processed meats like bacon, sausage, chorizo etc.

No matter how much they whine!
