What fruit is safe? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

My yorkie loves banana, whenver he sees us peeling one he will not leave us alone until we give him some. Is it ok to give it to him and how much? Also what other fruit is ok for them?

Bananas are great, mine love all fruits - the only fruit, I can really think of that is a no-no, as it is poisonous to dogs are grapes - and raisins.

Mine also love veggies - especially carrots and snow peas or pea pods, green beans too

Here's a great thread - it's a stick at the top of this Health & Diet forum - be sure to read it List of DANGEROUS FOODS for Dogs

My Trixie LOVES

Bananas too..She goes crazy for them we call her monkey..She is amazing when we peel one she can smell it and she comes running. She also loves apples, and carrots..........
As too your question as to how much?? I only give her a little at a time because she would eat as much as I gave her and I didn't ever want her to get an upset tummy.

She's been on a special diet so it's been some time for her having those treats. (we're working on allergies with her)

Keoki loves all fruit!!!! Plums, nectarines, peaches, apples, blueberries and veggies- in tiny amounts - definitely stay away from grapes, raisins, and seeds.

What do you do with giving fruits and/or veggies to dogs with food allergies?
