Dogs digest differently than humans do, and eating the wrong foods can lead to long-term health problems and, in extreme cases, even death. As carnivores, they have no real need for fruits and vegetables as part of their diet, but an occasional fruit or veggie as a treat is OK.

Yes, all dogs can eat apples, from Great Danes to Chihuahuas, Yorkies, or Pomeranians. Red Delicious, Honeycrisp, Gala and Granny Smith—basically all varieties of apples that you'd commonly find at your neighborhood grocery store—are safe for dogs to eat. I recommend feeding fresh apple slices, including the skins.

Yes, dogs can eat bananas. In moderation, bananas are a great low-calorie treat for dogs. They're high in potassium, vitamins, biotin, fiber, and copper.

Pear. Pears are full of vitamin C, vitamin A, and fiber, and make a great snack for cats and dogs when served in moderation. As with apples and oranges, pear seeds contain traces of cyanide and should be removed before feeding to your pet. Give cats or dogs small slices of pear to help promote anti-cancer properties.

It may be hard or confusing to figure out which fruits and vegetables are safe for your dog (here's a hint: grapes are definitely not safe), but yes, your best friend can have fresh strawberries. However, you should not feed your dog canned strawberries or strawberries in syrup. These are not good for your pet, at all.
