Vegetables as everyday dog snacks
Non‑starchy vegetables such as carrots, cucumbers, pumpkin, and green beans make excellent low‑calorie snacks for many dogs and are often used in weight‑management plans. Serve them plain and chopped into bite‑sized pieces with no butter, oil, salt, onions, or garlic, and introduce new veggies slowly so you can watch for any gas or loose stools.
