Why pineapple is a good treat for dogs
Non-toxic flesh with vitamins, minerals and enzymes; high fiber and sugar mean quantity must be small. Only the soft flesh is safe.
How much pineapple can a dog have?
A few small chunks; large amounts cause GI upset.
How to prepare it
Remove rind, core, stem and leaves — only soft flesh. Avoid canned (syrup = too much sugar).
Watch out for
- Rind/core/leaves are choking and GI hazards
- Canned pineapple in syrup = excess sugar
- Large amounts cause diarrhea from fiber
