Can Dogs Get Sick By Eating Candy
Can Dogs Get Sick By Eating Candy
Are you brushing your pup's teeth?
I am not joking.
Veterinarians say that brushing the teeth, like trimming the claws, is part of responsible pet care.
For huskies, this is particularly important because puppies get used to it.
Trying to start with an older dog can be pretty hopeless.
Be careful not to let your husky run loose.
Don't wait until the pup is grown to start to care about this.
Otherwise, you may likely lose your pup before it's a dog.
(You know, I assume, about never feeding your dog chocolate, onions, or tobacco.)

Let's get serious :)
Candy is mostly sugar and it's not good for people or dogs on a regular basis. Dogs can get
diabetes, too. Fruits given in small snack portions can be great treats. Some good fruits our
dogs enjoy slices of include: cored apple slices, mango slices, papaya chunks, blueberries,
banana slices, melon bits
but all the fruit they get are in very small amounts and not all the time. They get fresh
veggies and fresh meat, too. Some grains they get include: white rice, quinoa, oatmeal, and
sometimes other foods such as sweet potato. Fresh meats are in both meals daily.
They eat a home cooked diet and are doing great, healthwise. They also get plain live active
cultured yogurt. We aren't skimpy with the meat. So, short answer is: I'd avoid candy, give
small portions of fresh fruits that are listed as safe for dogs and if I was considering a home
cooked diet (which I feed my dogs) I'd make sure I had a good balance.
