Endive, the green leafy vegetable, is one most of us are familiar with, as they’re available in most grocery and health food stores. You’ll recognize endive—it’s green with curly leaves.

Endive is packed with vitamins and minerals including beta carotene, Vitamins C & E, folate, potassium, riboflavin, calcium, iron and magnesium. It’s popular and often used in healthy salads.
Can my dog eat endive? Yes—he can enjoy this healthy veggie! Before serving endive to your fur baby, be sure to cook it first. You can steam it until tender, and then mix in with your dog’s regular dogfood. Can my puppy eat endive? Yes—your puppy can also eat endive. Keep this in mind if your dog eating endive: be sure to keep the serving size small and don’t serve it as a regular part of your pup’s diet. Too much endive can cause stomach and digestive issues, such as vomiting and diarrhea.
