    vegetables for dogs

◉ Raw vegetables: Raw vegetables contain all the natural vitamins and nutrients, some of which are lost during cooking. However, dogs have a hard time fully digesting raw veggies. That’s because their digestive enzymes aren’t made to break down plant cell walls. As a result, a large portion of raw vegetables is excreted undigested.

◉ Cooked vegetables: Cooking breaks down the cell walls, making nutrients more accessible. However, heat-sensitive vitamins like vitamin C can be lost in the process. It’s also important not to overcook the vegetables to preserve as many nutrients as possible.

◉ The perfect compromise Steaming: Our favorite: Steaming . Here, most of the nutrients are preserved, while the structure becomes soft enough for the body to optimally utilize the ingredients.

◉ Onions and leeks: Can cause severe changes in the blood profile.

◉ Raw potatoes: Contain solanine, which is toxic.

◉ Avocado: Contains persin, which can be harmful to dogs.

◉ Rhubarb: The leaves contain oxalic acid, which can promote kidney stones.

◉ Beans: Contain phytohemagglutinin, a toxin that must be destroyed by cooking.

 

 

 

◉ 1. Choose suitable vegetables: (see list above).

◉ 2. Wash the vegetables thoroughly: Make sure there are no pesticides or residues left. (If possible, vegetables from your own garden are best.)

◉ 3. Cut the vegetables into small pieces: Small pieces cook faster and more evenly. They’re also easier for your dog to eat.

◉ 4. Steam the vegetables: Place the vegetables in a pot with a little water or use a steamer. Steam them for about 5–10 minutes until soft but still slightly firm.

◉ 5. Let the vegetables cool: Hot vegetables can burn your dog’s mouth. Wait until they’ve reached room temperature.

◉ 6. Puree (optional): For better digestibility, you can puree the vegetables. This is especially helpful for sensitive dogs.

 

 

 

◉ Monday evening: Mix 500g of vegetables, steam, portion out and freeze.

◉ During the day:: Thaw one portion and mix it into your dog’s food.
