Why It's Dangerous
Dogs do not need added sugar in their diet. Regular sugary treats lead to obesity, dental disease, and over time can contribute to insulin resistance and diabetes. Some sugar-free alternatives contain xylitol which is far more dangerous.
Symptoms to Watch For
- Weight gain
- Dental problems
- Increased thirst and urination (diabetes signs)
- Energy crashes
Vet Guidance
Switch to dog-appropriate treats. Have your dog's teeth checked regularly by your vet.
