Any Q

Fish itself is not harmful to dogs, but the way we prepare it can cause problems. Fish cooked in too much oil can cause GI upset in dogs, or even lead to serious illness such as pancreatitis. Seasonings may also cause serious health problems for dogs, especially if they contain toxic ingredients, like garlic.

How much fish can dogs eat?

In general, fish should not make more than 10% of a dog's daily calorie intake. If it's part of the dog's everyday diet, you should limit fish to twice a week. For instance, a large dog breed such as a labrador can consume 3 times more fish than a small breed dog per week.
