Can Dogs Eat Pumpkin?

Verdict
Safe in moderation

A vet's favourite for digestive support.

Why it is safe

Plain cooked pumpkin (no spices, no sugar) is rich in soluble fibre that helps both diarrhoea and constipation. Low calorie, vitamin-rich.

Safe portion

1 tsp per 10 lb body weight up to twice daily.

Always consult your vet. If your dog has eaten something you're worried about — or shows any unusual symptoms — call your veterinarian or a pet poison helpline immediately. This page is editorial guidance, not emergency advice for an individual animal.
