Can Dogs Eat Turkey?
Verdict
Safe in moderation
Why it is safe
Plain turkey breast is a lean source of protein. The risks come from the skin, which is fatty, cooked bones, which can splinter, and seasoning, gravy and stuffing, which often contain onion or garlic.
Safe portion
A few pieces of plain, boneless, skinless cooked turkey as a treat.
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.
