Here are another five healthy snacks to give your pup. 6. Eggs Never feed your dog raw eggs; it is very unhealthy! On the other hand, boiled eggs are a great source of protein, selenium, and riboflavin. They can be given separately or in combination with your dog’s food. For dogs that are prone to gaining weight, it is best to only feed the egg white, as the yolk contains all of the fat. 7. Yogurt Although some people believe that yogurt, cottage cheese, and other dairy products are harmful for dogs, it all depends on your dog’s reaction to the food. Most dogs do fine eating yogurt, and it can be a healthy snack as long as it is given moderately. Staying away from artificial flavors, high sugars, and high fat yogurt is also helpful. If your dog is tolerant to yogurt, it is a great source of calcium and can even be good for the digestive system. 8. Rice Cakes Who doesn’t like rice cakes? Well some of you may not, but your dog will love them! They are crunchy, tasty, and healthy! But of course, sticking to the natural (plain) kind is better; you will avoid the unnecessary sugars and artificial flavors. 9. Banana Chips Banana chips are great for using when training your dog. They’re the perfect size so you can carry them around for your pet as well as for yourself! 10. Peanut Butter Peanut butter is the all-time classic dog snack. Yes, it is healthy and dogs undoubtedly love it, but don’t over feed your dog peanut butter as it can lead to weight gain. Now that you know which snacks are healthy for your dog, it’s time to see which ones your dog loves the most. Keep a list of the snacks that your dog likes so that you can feed them in the future.
