| I've never seen them on a "don't give" list so I'm sure they are fine. I would moderate, though. Cucumbers give ME gas so imagine what they'd do to a little Yorkie tummy lol

| I agree with Terri, I would be concerned about gas. My Teddy is very sensitive to veggies and fruit. Cucumbers are slightly hard to digest. Here is what ASPCA says: ASPCA | Cucumber

| Mine like cuc and I give only small bits. Ours are well adapted to veggies and do very well with them.

| Uni loooooooves cucumbers! Esp Persian cucumbers, they are smaller w less seeds and more sweet. She's never had a gas problem after eating them. She gets more gas from her kibble I think. |
