Sweet Potato Dog Treats
Many dogs love the taste of sweet potato. And a bonus is that sweet potatoes have a host of health benefits for humans as well as dogs.
Treats for our animal babies should be viewed as the same as treats for us. Everything in moderation. You don’t want your dogs filling up on treats and not eating their food. And choose treats carefully. We don’t want them ingesting garbage foods that are full of garbage ingredients.
Health Benefits of Sweet Potato Dog Treats
- dietary fiber to help with digestive health
- source of Vitamin A – this helps their skin, hair/fur, eyes, and muscles (but don’t overload them because too much Vitamin A can be harmful)
- source of Vitamin B6, C, calcium, iron, and potassium
- low fat
Again – don’t overdo any type of treat. It should be just that – a treat and not a meal replacement.
So if you know your pup likes sweet potato flavor or if you are looking for a new healthy treat alternative, here are a few good options both store-bought and homemade.
Store-Bought Sweet Potato Dog Treats
