狗狗可以食南瓜嗎?過量反而會中毒

Can dogs eat pumpkin? Overdosage can lead to poisoning

"Hey, hello!" Except for the Seawater Park, everyone may think of pumpkins, but how much do you know about pumpkins?

 

Improve symptoms of constipation and diarrhea

Improve diarrhea:
Soluble fiber helps absorb excess water, making stools less prone to softness.

Improve constipation:
It contains high water and fiber, which can increase the volume of stool and soften it. It can also act as lubrication, so constipation is less likely to occur.

 

Nutritious

Because pumpkin is rich in nutrients, owners can use pumpkin as a dog snack. Let’s first introduce the nutrients: fiber, potassium, vitamins A, C and E, calcium, iron, carotene, and lutein, which helps the health of eyes, skin and dog hair.

 

Too much pumpkin can be toxic

Because there is a lot of beta-carotene in pumpkin, and beta-carotene will be converted into vitamin A by dogs, too much vitamin A is highly toxic to dogs.

A maximum of 1-2 teaspoons is recommended for small dogs and a few tablespoons for larger dogs.

 

Too much pumpkin affects digestion

 

It’s all fruit. Pumpkin contains a lot of carbohydrates, which can make dogs feel stronger. However, most carbohydrates will burden the dog’s digestive system. Remember, it is less seasoned than fresh pumpkin. oh.

All dogs have different bodies. If you want to feed them more safely, remember to ask your veterinarian for advice!
