Can Dogs Eat It?

Ah, those puppy eyes.....looking at you longingly, hoping you’ll share a wee morsel....even a crumb. The temptation is great, but the food you’re enjoying may not be the best thing for man’s best friend.

Before you decide to share your meal or snack with Fido, you may want to check CanDogsEatIt.com. A web app designed to provide dog owners with quick and easy access to what human foods are safe for their dogs to eat.

Did you know that the consumption of toxic foods was the number one worldwide cause of poisoning in dogs?

In the US alone, the ASPCA revealed that the Animal Poison Control Center received 200,000 poisoning cases, of which almost one-fifth were from ingesting human foods.

Another study carried out by the Kennel Club in the UK found that during the past five years, 60,000 Dogs had been accidentally poisoned during the past five years, with around one-third being from toxic foods.

All digestive systems are not created equal. What is suitable for human consumption or may appear healthy to you may actually be harmful to dogs.
