Essential foods in our lives are milk and eggs. Most people consume these as staple foods, which are very nutritious for our bodies. But do foods that are nutritious for humans have the same effect on pet dogs? Online, many people eat raw eggs for attention, but this practice is irresponsible to one’s health because eggs laid by hens contain bacteria from the hen’s body, which can only be killed by boiling or frying. So, what impact does this food have on dogs’ health if they eat it?

Dogs can eat eggs. Whether they eat egg whites or yolks depends on what the dog prefers. The nutrition in eggs can be fully provided to dogs. If owners plan to feed eggs to their dogs, it is recommended to cook or fry the eggs before giving them to the dog. When feeding, start with a small amount to see if the dog has any abnormal reactions before deciding whether to continue feeding. Every dog’s stomach condition is different. It’s possible that other dogs can eat eggs, but your own dog cannot. Therefore, for safety, feeding should be done cautiously.

As mentioned above, humans should not eat raw eggs, and the same applies to dogs. Compared to humans, dogs are even more fragile animals. Food containing bacteria is harder for dogs to tolerate. If a dog eats eggs, it may vomit up its stomach acid and suffer some damage to the stomach. Owners must pay attention. Although eggs are nutritious, the method of preparation makes a big difference. For cooked or fried eggs, do not add seasonings meant for humans. Dogs cannot eat some human seasonings, such as garlic, which we love but can cause bad breath or dental calculus in dogs. If salt is added to eggs, it can cause diarrhea or vomiting in dogs.

Besides eggs, human carrots and apples are also very nutritious for dogs. But carrots should be cooked before feeding, and apples must be peeled and have the core removed. If the owner directly gives a dog an apple, the dog may not eat it or may swallow it whole. Fruit cores can also be harmful to dogs.
