Can Dogs Eat Raspberries?
Verdict
Safe in moderation
Why it is safe
Raspberries are low in sugar and contain fibre and vitamin C. They naturally contain a tiny amount of xylitol, which is why they should be kept to small amounts rather than whole punnets.
Safe portion
A few berries for a small dog, or a small handful for a large dog.

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.
