Can dogs eat spinach?

Vegetables ยท Dog food safety
โš ๏ธ Use caution. Safe for healthy dogs in small amounts. Not recommended for those with kidney issues.

Why?

Spinach contains vitamins A, B, C, and K, iron, and antioxidants. However, it is also very high in oxalic acid which can block calcium absorption and damage kidneys over time.

How much can dogs have?

A very small amount occasionally โ€” treat it as a garnish not a regular food.

What to watch out for

Not recommended for dogs with kidney disease. The high oxalic acid content can contribute to kidney stones with regular feeding. Healthy dogs can have small amounts occasionally.
