How to Feed Spinach to Your Dog

Spinach is safe for dogs in small amounts. It is rich in iron, vitamins A, B, C, and K, and antioxidants. However, spinach is high in oxalic acid which can interfere with calcium absorption and, in very large quantities over time, could contribute to kidney problems. Dogs with existing kidney issues should avoid spinach entirely. For healthy dogs, a small amount occasionally is fine — steamed spinach is easiest to digest.
