Can Dogs Eat Apples?



We answer this commonly Googled question
Many dogs love apples which is great because apples can be a super, healthy treat. Apples contain calcium, 
vitamin K, vitamin C, and pectin (soluble fibre). One small apple contains 52 C.
Things to do with apples for dogs
There are many different ways to feed apple to dogs; you can serve it as a frozen slice, you can wedge it into a 
Kong, you can make apple pops with apple sauce, or serve grated as a dinner topping. Avoid large amounts of 
apple seeds and stems in fresh apples, as they contain cyanogenic glycosides which can cause tummy upset
 and more serious problems if consumed in large quantities. Also be cautious feeding dehydrated apples.
 Dehydrated apples contain all of the nutrients of the hydrated ones but they have no water, so only feed little bits 
of dried apple to prevent tummy upset.
