Can Dogs Eat Bananas?

My furry friend is spoiled beyond belief. When anyone comes to my house, they are astonished by the amount of clothes and toys she owns. What can I say? She’s a little princess who deserves everything her heart desires.

However, I do have a caveat to that. I will never feed my furry friend anything that could potentially cause her harm. Thankfully, there are plenty of tasty fruits my canine companion can safely enjoy, like bananas.

According to the American Kennel Club, giving your furry friend a few bites of a banana is perfectly fine. The fruit can be beneficial, as it boasts plenty of potassium, vitamins, and fiber. However, you should always speak to your dog’s vet before adding new foods to their diet.

If your dog enjoys bananas, you can whip up homemade treats featuring the fruit. For instance, Pawsome Recipes has a recipe for banana peach frozen yogurt dog treats, perfect for warmer days.
