Can My Dog Eat Pork?

Maybe. Pork can be a great source of protein and healthy fats in your dog’s diet. Store-bought dog food that advertises pork is a great choice if your dog likes it, and of course, it provides the other nutrients and vitamins your dog needs.

However, pork table scraps are where it can get tricky. Many pork products are high in fat and sodium. Too many fatty treats can put your dog at risk of obesity and heart-related diseases. Limit pork treats to a few bites only on occasion and your dog should be fine.
