Can Dogs Eat Zucchini?

Caring for Your Dog
By Tracy Vicory-Rosenquest

Share0Tweet0Pin It0

Yes! Zucchini is safe for your dog to eat in moderation and is a good source of vitamin C, potassium, calcium, beta-carotene, and folate. These vitamins and minerals are important for your dog’s bones and the healthy functioning of your dog’s muscles, nerves, vision, and immune system.

If your dog eats a large quantity of zucchini, he may be gassy or could experience other digestive issues.

Serving Ideas

Dogs can eat zucchini:

  • Grilled, baked, or added to a homemade meal that’s balanced with a good source of protein.  Avoid seasonings such as garlic or onion powder that are unsafe for your dog.
  • Sliced thin and frozen as an occasional treat.
  • Shredded raw as a topping to your dog’s dinner.
