Can My Dog Eat Italian Sausage?

Maybe not. If the Italian sausage is processed with seasonings such as onion powder or garlic powder, these are toxic to your dog. Consuming these seasonings puts your dog at risk for anemia. In addition, spicy seasonings like red pepper will upset your dog’s stomach.

Even if you find an Italian sausage without any of these seasonings, this meat is high in fat, and it’s not a recommended protein for your dog.
