Fruit ยท Dog food safety
โœ… Safe. Hydrating and refreshing summer treat. Remove seeds and rind first.

Why?

Watermelon is 92% water making it an excellent hydrating treat, especially in summer. It contains vitamins A, B6, and C, and lycopene which supports heart health.

How much can dogs have?

A few cubes (1-2 inch pieces) is plenty. Great frozen as a hot-weather treat.

What to watch out for

Always remove seeds โ€” they can cause intestinal blockage. Remove the rind too โ€” it can cause digestive upset. Stick to the red flesh only.
