Thanks for reaching out! It's great that you're looking into safe options for your dog to enjoy some people food. Many dogs love having a taste of what we're eating, and there are a few human foods that can be a healthy addition to your dog's diet.
Some safe options include plain cooked chicken, which is a great source of protein, and can be easily added to their regular meals. Carrots and green beans, either raw or cooked, are excellent for dogs who enjoy crunchy snacks and they also offer some fiber and vitamins. Plain, unsweetened pumpkin (canned or cooked fresh) can be a wonderful treat that helps with digestion. Additionally, small amounts of plain, unsalted peanut butter can be a tasty reward for your furry friend.
However, remember to avoid giving your dog foods like chocolate, grapes, onions, and anything with artificial sweeteners, as they can be toxic.
If you're feeding these human foods as special treats, make sure to offer them in moderation to prevent any stomach upset. Watch for signs of discomfort like vomiting, diarrhea, or lethargy, as they might indicate an adverse reaction.
If you’re considering adding more human food to your dog's diet or have more questions, why not book a video consult with one of our vets at Dial A Vet? We’d be happy to help tailor advice to your dog’s specific needs!

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
