Sweetener ยท Dog food safety
โš ๏ธ Use caution. Small amounts are safe for healthy adult dogs. Not for puppies.

Why?

Raw honey contains small amounts of vitamins and minerals, and has natural antibacterial properties. Some people give it to dogs for seasonal allergies.

How much can dogs have?

No more than a teaspoon for large dogs. Very small amounts for small dogs.

What to watch out for

Never give to puppies or dogs with compromised immune systems โ€” raw honey can contain botulism spores. Very high in sugar โ€” not for diabetic or overweight dogs. Not a health food for dogs despite its reputation.
