Can dogs eat celery?
If your dog has already eaten this and you are worried, contact your veterinarian.
Why
Celery is non-toxic and offers hydration and fiber, but its stringy texture can pose a choking hazard or cause digestive upset if fed in large pieces. It should always be chopped into small, bite-sized pieces and given in limited quantities to avoid stomach upset.
If you do feed it
- Chop celery into small, bite-sized pieces to prevent choking
- Limit treats to no more than 10% of daily calories
- Wash thoroughly to remove pesticides
- Introduce slowly to monitor for digestive sensitivity
Watch out for
- Whole stalks or large chunks
- Celery leaves in excess
- Salted, buttered, or seasoned celery
- Celery root or celeriac in large amounts
