Any Q

Be sure your dog drinks plenty of water when adding pumpkin or any other fiber-rich ingredients to their diet to prevent dehydration. Go by weight in terms of the maximum amount of pumpkin to feed your dog: Small dogs can have a teaspoon or so per day, while big dogs can handle a tablespoon or two.


Is it safe to give a dog pumpkin everyday?

You can give your dog regular canned pumpkins from your local grocery store. However, it's best to not feed your dog any pumpkin pie filling or canned pumpkin that has added sweeteners and spices. The fewer additives and ingredients in canned pumpkin, the better it will be for your dog's health.

How much is too much pumpkin for dogs?

A:Start with a very small serving of cooked pumpkin, working up to no more than 1 teaspoon (per 10 lbs. of body weight). For small dogs, that max amount might mean ½ teaspoon per day, while large dogs can safely eat 1-4 tablespoons daily.
