| Oh Banana is GREAT for them- i wish Layla would eat it! it is definitly better than any other bought treat you can give her because you know what's in it So i'd say if that is what yo uwant to use as a treat- go for it- but like any treat- use in moderation. |

| Bananas are great treats! My two love them as well. I would say no more than 2" of banana in a day would probably be ok for her, less for a smaller yorkie. I think my two each get about 1" total at a time, and they are 4 and 6 lbs. Any more than that and I would worry about tummy upset.

| I agree. Mine all love Banana. I just limit them to a few slices each, as I don't know how much would be too much. A few slices works well for my kids.

| Aww. Mine love bananas too. I can't even peel a banana in another room mind you from where they are and oh they can hear it, they can I swear. They hear that banana being peeled and they peel towards me, and between three dogs I end up just tasting it, nevermind eating one whole one. LOL! They get banana once in awhile, not all the time. They love apples too. |

| My JW loved banana! He also begged insanely for apples, oranges, and spinach. Monty, not so much. Monty is a junk food junkie... but skinny as a rail. JW loved the healthy food and out weighed his biggest parent by 3 lbs! He wasnt overweight at all, just healthy. Prob from all his fruits and veggies.
