Are blueberries safe to eat? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

They remind me of grapes for some reason, which is why I've been scared to feed them to Chloe. I see a lot of dog treats have blueberries, though. Are blueberries safe to feed?

Yes! A few of mine didn't like them bc I guess the skin holds in the sweet smell, but a few LOVED them. Blueberries are very healthy.

You are right. No grapes or raisins.

My girl loves blueberries and apples. She really loves all fruit except bananas.

Blueberrys are fine but like with all things moderation.

I have to cut them before mine seem interested, but once I do that, they love them. They are added to many dog foods now, they have antioxidant capacities. I agree with Lovetodream, moderation is important and start only with one. Your dog can handle many foods if you start them slowly.

Yes, they are one of the main fruits in Acana dog food and Teddy loves blueberries and cranberries!

My Niko starts crying when he sees them, although he prefers them frozen.
