Can dogs eat carrots?

Safe

Carrots are a crunchy, low-calorie snack suitable for most dogs.

What you should know

Raw or cooked plain carrots are fine. Many dogs enjoy chewing them, and they're a lighter alternative to processed treats.

Practical guidance

  • Cut into bite-sized pieces to reduce choking risk.
  • Serve plain — no butter or seasoning.
