🐶 Can dogs eat this?

Why

Carrots aren't toxic and their fibre is harmless in small quantities. Cats don't need vegetables, but a bit of soft cooked carrot is a fine occasional nibble; cut raw carrot small to prevent choking.

If you do share it

A small amount of plain cooked (or finely chopped) carrot occasionally.
