Strawberries are full of fibre and vitamin C. Along with that, they also contain an enzyme that can help whiten your pooch’s teeth.

Like all fruits, strawberries contain natural sugar, so offer them in moderation. Frozen strawberries can be a fun enrichment treat for furry friends as well!



Strawberry Power For Dogs: Health Benefits for Your Pup!

  • Healthy Digestion: Fibre promotes regularity by adding bulk to your dog's stool and preventing constipation. It also nourishes the beneficial gut bacteria that aid digestion and vitamin production.

  • Strong Bones: Vitamin K supports healthy blood clotting, while manganese assists in the absorption of calcium and phosphorus, both essential for strong bone formation and maintenance.

  • Cellular Protection: Antioxidants combat harmful free radicals, which can contribute to inflammation, cancer, and the effects of aging.


Something else you need to know about Strawberries!
  • Skip the canned strawberries or those in syrup for your furry friend, as they often contain extra sugar or other things pooches do not need.

  • Fresh strawberries are a wonderful treat on their own, or you can mash them up and mix them into your pup's food.

  • Frozen strawberries also make a fantastic and refreshing cool snack!



A Little Note from Us: Before trying any new foods with your furry pal, it's always best to chat with your vet first. This blog shares some of Pimmy's favourite eats, which have played a big part in her recovery journey after her MCT experience and in keeping her feeling her best. We hope this information is helpful, but please remember it's not a substitute for professional vet or dietary advice. Sending lots of love to your pooch, cheers!
