Do you have a dog as your pet? Do you want to give your dog natural dog treats? Your dog is super lucky to have you as its owner. In the same way, you’re fortunate to have your dog as a pet.

There are some great health benefits of having a pet, including decreased feelings of loneliness, reduced cholesterol levels and blood pressure, and increased opportunities for outdoor activities.

And as for your dog, eating healthy foods keeps it healthy and satisfied.

I remember when we were small, a dog laid some puppies in our backyard. Since the mama dog was frail, the puppies had not enough milk. So we kids used to feed the puppies finger millet porridge.

After a few days, the puppies started to gain weight and soon became round balls of fur. We had fun feeding those puppies. We used clean coconut shells and poured the porridge in them. Beautiful memories!

5 Natural dog treats

Apples

These lustrous red fruits are a great addition to your dog’s diet. Apples are rich in dietary fiber, vitamin C, and vitamin A. Likewise, apples freshen your dog’s breath and keep its teeth clean. But remove the seeds and core before giving apples to your dog.

Carrots

Carrots are a great natural dog treat, plus they are a tasty, affordable snack for your pup’s diet. These orange veggies are high in betacarotene and fiber, and crunching carrot gives their teeth an excellent workout. You can serve both cooked or raw carrots as natural dog treats.

Watermelon

It’s excellent for dogs to eat watermelons but with a couple of precautions. Firstly, remove the seeds as they could cause intestinal blockage. Likewise, remove the rind to avoid stomach problems. Watermelon is enriched with vitamin A, vitamin C, and B6, and potassium. It’s also high in fiber and aids digestion.

Bananas

Veterinarians often recommend giving your dog bananas because they are a healthy alternative to processed treats. Also, bananas are high in fiber and boost your dog’s digestive health. Fiber helps reduce the risk of constipation. Likewise, bananas are rich in Vitamin B6, Vitamin C, and potassium. However, feed your dogs bananas in moderation as they contain a lot of sugar.

Strawberries

These little red fruits are great for your dogs. Strawberries are low-calorie, healthy sweet treats that are rich in antioxidants. Also, they are fat-free and cholesterol-free. Treats for your dogs should not be more than ten percent of their total calories per day.
