We love our dogs and treat them like members of our family. That often means we want to share more than our home with them. We want to dole out bits of what we’re eating to our furbabies, too. Unfortunately, not all human food is good for dogs, and in some cases can actually be fatal.
Here are eleven human foods that are healthy for dogs and that you can give them in moderation.
1. Peanut butter
It’s been said that peanut butter is the national food of children, and our four-footed buddies are just as fond of it as our kids are. It lasts a long time and packs plenty of protein, healthy fats, and vitamins E and B, all good for our dogs. Just make sure it’s unsalted and doesn’t contain artificial sweeteners like Xylitol, which is deadly for dogs.

I’ve heard that peanut butter is NOT good for dogs. Especially in golden retrievers it can contribute to ear infections.

I’ve been told by my veterinarian that dogs, especially little dogs like pugs, are more susceptible to developing pancreatitis when fed human food. They especially told me to avoid giving her cheese of any kind. There must be an ingredient in it that many dogs have trouble getting rid of and it just starts building up and circulating around in their blood.
