Can dogs eat peas?

🟢 Safe in moderation

Green peas are safe and a common, healthy ingredient in dog food. Avoid canned peas with added salt.

The bottom line

​Peas is generally safe for dogs in small amounts as an occasional treat, prepared plainly with no added salt, sugar, oil or seasoning. Treats should make up no more than about 10% of your dog’s daily calories.

For your dog's main diet, what matters most is the food itself. Paste your dog food's ingredients into the WoofScore checker to see how it grades.
