The Daily Treat is one of the best online newsletters for dog owners and dog lovers. It is one of my personal favorite resources where I go for information when I have questions about my own dog Reese. This time of year I get concerned about what Reese can and can not eat. We don’t indulge him with people food but he is fast to snatch up anything we drop on the floor. The experts at Rover.com have a fun and informative article about foods that dogs can and can not eat that are more commonly made and eaten this time of year, but that are also found in homes year round.
Here are a few types of foods from the article. Try to guess which ones your dog can and can’t eat. . .
- apples
- green bean casserole
- yogurt
- apple pie
- pumpkin pie
Now go to the article here and see if your answers are correct.
And now that you have tested your knowledge and read the article and , you can watch this incredibly adorable video of a dog making pumpkin pies! (Yep, you heard me right.) You are going to love it!
Remember to keep your dogs safe by keeping human food out of their reach and only giving them foods that you want them to have. Happy Holidays!
Pin this for later. . .

I had no idea about dogs could have pumpkin pie. This is a cute video and I think I want to make these treats for my pup. We spoiled her rotten.

I know that dogs should not have chocolate. Glad to hear that they can enjoy pumpkin.

We really don’t give our dog human food because I am scared of giving him the wrong thing. Nice to know he can green beans and sliced apples.
Alicia Taylor
Thank you for sharing helpful information. I’d like to add that chocolate is a no-no – as is alcohol.

My dogs love to chew on raw pumpkin. I have to watch though, as they will gulp it down in one bite. They love canned green beans, too!

This is so cute! This is really great advice. Thank you for sharing this information.

I didn’t realize that they could eat some of these but I guess it makes sense, they had to eat something before dog food.

When we had dogs, my mom would feed them certain human foods. I was surprised they can eat green bean casserole.

Such great things to know when it comes to what your dog can and can’t have. Sometimes we as humans do not think about the ill effects certain foods can have on our dogs. My grandparents used to give their poodle ice cream only to find out later it was a no-no and she loved Maple Walnut ice cream. I also loved your cute pictures.

Well why not? I am sure the dogs want to celebrate thanksgiving too. Let them live a little!
Tiffany Haywood
Thanks so much for this! I knew about pumpkin and how good it is for digestion but short of that I had no idea of the options our Harley Girl could have this Thanksgiving!
Andrea
That is really good to know! I am sure dogs would love when people share food, as long as it’s safe 🙂

I don’t have a dog but is thinking about getting one. I’ll keep this info when I finally get a dog.
Hey Sharonoox
I remember my mom used to feed our dog human food except chocolates and fruits. I don’t own a dog but will pass this along.

Oh wow. I didn’t know they could eat pumpkin pie! My Kaia is gonna live that! That video is awesome. Made my day, love how the pooch helped with the baking. Too cute. I’m gonna have to help my baby make some too.
Bobbi
This is such great info to know. I love to include the fur babies in everything that I can.

It is absolutely important to only give them the foods that you want them to have. Accidents are too often prone to happen when food is left out.
Adaleta
Oh my gosh this is such a cute post! I just love it!! So fun and do good to know what they can eat and what they cant!
Missy
I don’t have a dog – I’m just here for the cute dog pics lol. Thanks for helping keep pets safe this Thanksgiving!

Dogs seem to prefer human food over theirs haha. This is great post for keeping dogs healthy. It’s important to raise awareness that dogs CANNOT eat everything that we eat. Some people just don’t get it.
Nicole
I don’t have a dog anymore, but I had no idea all of the foods and table scraps that we give our pets that they really shouldn’t have! This is really helpful for those with pets around the holidays, thanks for sharing!
