I did some research on foods that are safe for puppies and everything that Maximo mentioned was on that list. I'll admit I spoil my puppy with people food but I always make sure that it is in his food bowl and I mix it with a little bit of kibble. We NEVER feed him from our plates. He's still a puppy so we put him in his crate when we're eating. I have given him bananas, apples, yogurt, brown rice, boiled chicken,peanut butter, green beans, and even scrambled eggs. No seasoning what so ever. Make sure everything is plain. I know cheese is supposed to be okay but it stops my little guy up so we don't do that anymore. I also give him cheerios as treats when he goes potty in the correct spot. He loves cheerios more than any of the treats we have purchased at the pet store. They are also cheaper and go a long way lol.
