Five beneficial natural foods for your dog or cat, according to a veterinarian

Dogs need a dry food diet, even if they are not too enthusiastic about eating the same thing every day. Although that is the norm, there are also equally healthy exceptions. You don't have to look too hard, but these are foods that we will find in our refrigerator or in our kitchen cabinets.

These are eggs, carrots, canned sardines, natural yogurt and bananas, a veterinarian lists in a video published on her TikTok profile.

In the case of eggs, which she teaches cooked, they are a source of protein, healthy fats, vitamins and minerals. "We can give one egg for every ten kilos weekly," details this veterinarian.

He calls the carrot a "healthy snack." If we prepare it boiled, "it improves digestion." If the furry or cat eats it raw, it will serve to clean the teeth. Either way, it "improves the defenses, eyesight and skin" of our pet.

Canned sardines are a "source of Omega 3 and are good for joints, the immune system, and skin and hair health." In the case of natural yogurt, this veterinarian maintains that, as a probiotic, it improves intestinal health, but it always has to be "natural and sugar-free." Only one tablespoon per five kilos of weight per day.

This list of natural foods also includes bananas. "It has a satiating effect. It is rich in potassium and is a good gastric protector," concludes this specialist.
