Pourquoi ?

Bananas are safe for dogs and provide potassium, vitamin B6, vitamin C, magnesium, and biotin. They are used commonly in homemade dog treats (frozen banana slices, banana-stuffed toys) and as a reward during training.

The sugar content of bananas is higher than most vegetables — a medium banana contains roughly 14g of sugar. For a healthy dog receiving bananas as an occasional treat, this is not a concern. For diabetic dogs or dogs prone to weight gain, banana should be offered in smaller amounts and discussed with a vet.

Banana peels: not toxic, but tough and difficult to digest. They may cause GI obstruction in small dogs.

Quelle quantité est dangereuse ?

No toxic dose. Excess sugar intake causes GI upset.

Quels sont les symptômes ?

Que dois-je faire ?
