Can Dogs Eat Parsnips?

Verdict
Safe in moderation

Why it is safe

Parsnips contain fibre, vitamins and minerals. Serve them cooked and plain — honey-roasted parsnips and parsnips roasted in lots of fat aren't a good choice.

Safe portion

A few small pieces of plain cooked parsnip.

Always consult your vet. If your dog has eaten something you're worried about — or shows any unusual symptoms — call your veterinarian immediately. In the UK, pet owners can also call Animal PoisonLine (run by the Veterinary Poisons Information Service) on 01202 509000, a 24-hour paid triage service.
