It’s difficult to resist the temptation to feed your pet from your plate. How can you resist the little pooch when it looks at you with those heart-melting puppy eyes? While sharing is caring, in this case, you must be very careful about what you feed your furry little friend. Dogs, unlike humans, cannot eat most foods and are susceptible to developing allergies. If you want to share your food, here’s a list of human foods that are safe for dogs.

Watermelon
A slice of watermelon is an excellent snack in harsh summers to keep you cool. Dogs can have this delicious fruit as long as you carefully remove the seeds and ensure that they don’t chew on the rind. However, be mindful of the number of slices you give your pet.

Cucumbers
Another veggie that your pet child and you can devour is cucumber. If you feel like your pup has put on some unnecessary pounds, switch their tidbit treats with some freshly cut cucumber. It is laden with essential vitamins and nutrients beneficial for their health. What’s more: cumber is healthy, crunchy, fresh, and delicious! Who wouldn’t love this veggie?

Turkey
Most pet foods are made with primary proteins like chicken, turkey, fish, and beef. So, it is safe to give your dog a piece of turkey as long as it is unseasoned and uncooked with the fat removed. Avoid giving fatty pieces of meat to dogs as consuming this can mess up with their digestive tract.

Popcorn
If you think about it, it’s hard to say no to a tub of popcorn. It’s no surprise that your doggo feels the same. Popcorn is a safe snack to munch on for dogs as long as they don’t eat any of the kernels that haven’t popped properly. Ensure that you give them plain popcorn minus the salt and toppings that you enjoy along with the nutritious snack.

Pork
Pork is another great protein-rich option that dogs can easily digest. Loaded with amino acids, it is one of the primary ingredients in many wet and dry dog foods that you get in the market. It is also a better option as it is less likely to cause an allergic reaction.

Peanuts or peanut butter
Read the label carefully before you decide to give your dog some peanut butter. It is no doubt an excellent source of protein, and as long as it does not contain sugar substitutes like xylitol, it is quite okay to give a spoonful to them. Peanut butter is rich in vitamin E and B and healthy fats. However, keep in mind to buy the unsalted kind. You can also give your dog a handful of peanuts, and again, make sure they are unsalted.
