Why blueberries is fine for dogs

Blueberries are an excellent antioxidant-rich treat and a great training reward.

How much can a dog eat?

Treats — including blueberries — should make up no more than about 10% of your dog's daily calories. Start with a small amount the first time to make sure it agrees with your dog, and serve it plain, with no added salt, sugar, oil or seasoning.

A few caveats

Puppies, seniors and small breeds need smaller portions. Dogs with health conditions (diabetes, kidney disease, a sensitive stomach) should only have new foods with your vet's okay.

What about their everyday food?

Treats are only part of the picture — your dog's main diet matters most. Paste your dog food's ingredients into the WoofScore checker to see how it grades A–F.
