It’s mid-season, you and your pup, Coach are at the Riverdogs’ Dog night game. Baseball and peanuts have always gone together in your mind, and Coach is looking up at you expectantly. Can you give him some?

The answer is yes and no. The only peanuts you can give your pup are dry-roasted or raw without salt. Salted nuts are a no for dogs. The amount of salt on salted nuts puts your dog at risk for salt toxicity. 

Additionally, peanuts are high in fat. Adding fat into your dog’s diet can ultimately lead to obesity or even pancreatitis. 

Yes, your dog can eat peanuts. But should you be adding peanuts into your dog’s diet, probably not.
