Any Q

As with most foods, feeding in moderation is key to keeping your pooch happy and healthy. You should limit salmon to a once a week treat at the most and make sure that it's a portion suitable for your dog's size. A dog can safely eat up to 10g of salmon for every 450g that they weigh.


Is salmon safe for Yorkies?

The short answer is yes. Salmon is a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, which support the immune system, may decrease inflammation, and can keep your dog's coat looking shiny and healthy. It's also a good protein source. In fact, salmon is a common ingredient in high-quality dog foods.

Can I feed salmon to my dog everyday?

Dogs can only safely eat salmon if it is fresh, boneless, well-cooked and fed in small portions. Salmon is often the main ingredient in many high quality dry and wet dog food products. Like many human foods, you should limit giving salmon to your dog no more than once a week.

Can I give my dog canned salmon?

Salmon is a healthy and safe food for your dog, and it can contribute to many health benefits for your dog. Canned salmon has the same health benefits as fresh and is much more cost-effective and easier to prepare.

Is chicken or salmon better for dogs?

Just like lamb, salmon can be a great alternative if your dog can't or won't eat chicken. Fish allergies are not that common in dogs, so salmon might be worth a try!
