Can dogs eat it?

Can dogs eat mango?

Yes, in moderation Yes, in moderation. Peel it and remove the stone, which is a choking hazard and contains small amounts of cyanide.

Why

Mango gives fibre and vitamins A, B6, C and E (AKC). The skin is hard to digest, and the stone can choke a dog or get stuck in the gut; it also contains small amounts of cyanide. RSPCA Australia says never feed mango seeds. Too much fruit can cause diarrhoea.

How to give it safely

Peel, remove the stone, and cut the flesh into small pieces. Keep it to an occasional treat.

This is general guidance, your vet sets the actual schedule. Puppies, small dogs and dogs with a health condition can react to smaller amounts. Check with your own vet before changing what your dog eats.

Other foods people ask about

Apples Yes, in moderation Yes. Apple slices are a good low calorie treat. Remove the core and seeds first. Apricots Yes, in moderation Yes, a little fresh flesh with the stone removed. Never the stone, kernel, stem or leaves, which contain cyanide compounds. Avocado Only with care Best avoided. The flesh is low risk, but the stone can block the gut, the skin and leaves contain persin, and guacamole has onion. Bananas Yes, in moderation Yes, in small amounts. Banana is a fine occasional treat, but it is high in sugar. Peel it first. Blackberries Yes, in moderation Yes. Fresh blackberries are a low calorie treat. Wash them and keep the portion small. Blueberries Yes, in moderation Yes. Blueberries are low in calories and full of antioxidants, and most dogs love them.
