Radishes are root veggies in the Brassicaceae family, which were first cultivated in Europe thousands of years ago. These veggies are popular around the world and are often eaten raw in salads. They come in different varieties, colors and flavors. Their seeds are even sometimes sprouted and eaten raw, similar to mung beans and other sprouts. Radishes are a great source of vitamin C, copper, vitamin B6, calcium and more.
Can my dog eat radishes? Yes! Radishes are safe for your fur baby! Can my puppy eat radishes? Yes! Radishes have a pepper taste, which not all dogs will love. Still, they’re not harmful and can be a low-calorie treat if your pup’s on a diet. What if my dog ate too many radishes? The worst that could happen is he’d end up with an upset tummy, diarrhea and excess gas. It’s safe to add raw, chopped radishes to your pup’s normal dog food, but only serve these to your dog in small amounts and only occasionally in order to avoid digestive problems.
