Horseradish is a spicy root that’s popular in parts of Europe, in the U.S. and even in Japan. In Japan, wasabi is often made from horseradish, rather than the wasabi plant. In the Czech Republic, and some other Central European countries, the root is sometimes grated and eaten raw with mustard or paired with some smoked meat, such as sausage. Other people use the grated root in deviled eggs, homemade mayonnaise (if you like it spicy!), etc.
Can my dog eat horseradish? Horseradish isn’t toxic to dogs; however, it’s not recommended that you give your dog horseradish. Can my puppy eat horseradish? No, puppies should not eat horseradish. Most dogs don’t enjoy such spicy foods, and this root can cause your pup to develop digestive problems, including vomiting, diarrhea, etc. If your dog ate a small bit of horseradish, he should be OK. Even so, avoid giving this spicy root to your dog.
