Can Dogs Eat Raspberries?
✓ Safe for Dogs
Low sugar, high fibre, antioxidant-rich. A good occasional treat.
Raspberries are a low-sugar, high-fibre fruit rich in antioxidants that can support digestion, making them a nutritious occasional treat. As with any high-fibre fruit, a large amount in one sitting can cause loose stools, so moderation is the main thing to watch for rather than any specific toxin. A small handful is a perfectly good treat for most dogs.
How to Feed Raspberries to Your Dog
No more than a small handful per day - a large amount can cause loose stools due to the fibre content.
