Maybe. Froot Loops are technically safe for your dog to eat, but they’re not healthy. Like most cereals, Froot Loops are made with refined grains, which aren’t an essential ingredient in the canine diet (a.k.a. empty calories). Froot Loops are also packed with sugar and preservatives, which are taxing to your dog’s digestive system and encourage unnecessary weight gain.
The Bottom Line
- If you feel compelled to share cereal, we suggest serving a more beneficial cereal, such as bran flakes.
- Crunchy, grain-free dog treats like these are also a healthier choice than cereal.
- If you do offer your dog Froot Loops, do so very sparingly and in very small amounts.
- Never offer Froot Loops as a full meal or as an enticement for your dog to eat his usual food.
