The Constant Expectation for Snacks
If you’re a dog owner, you know one thing for sure: your pup will always expect a share of whatever you’re eating. Whether it’s a sandwich, a bag of chips, or a piece of fruit, your dog will be right there, staring you down with those pleading eyes. It’s like a tax—they expect (and usually get) a bite of whatever’s on your plate. Why? Because once you start sharing, they’ll always assume it’s part of the deal. If you’ve ever given them a scrap of your food, they’ll remember and expect it every time they see you with something new
But is it really a good idea to share your snacks? While it might seem harmless, some human foods can be dangerous for dogs. Chocolate, grapes, and foods high in salt or sugar can pose serious health risks. That said, many dogs love healthy treats like carrots or apple slices, which can be a safer option. So, the next time your furry friend begs for a bite, ask yourself: is this snack safe for them? It’s all about finding a balance between indulging their cravings and keeping them healthy. After all, they’re not just pets—they’re family.
