Question:
I have a pug and a miniature dachshund. They both love cheese. The pug also loves fresh fruits and veggies. Is it OK for them to eat these things or should I avoid giving to them?
A: Fruits and vegetables are great!
Avoid feeding any onions, garlic, raisins, or grapes. All other fruits and vegetables are great! I recommend using these as treats instead of the higher calorie Milkbones.
I would recommend using cheese only in moderation. Due to the higher fat content, too much at one time can trigger pancreatitis (which can potentially be life-threatening in severe cases).
