Can dogs eat carrots?

Yes, generally

Generally safe. A low-calorie vegetable often given raw or cooked as a treat.

Carrots are widely listed among the vegetables considered safe for dogs. They are low in calories and a source of fibre and beta-carotene, and are commonly offered raw or cooked. The main note in veterinary sources is to size pieces sensibly to avoid a choking risk, particularly whole raw carrots for small dogs.

Classification reflects guidance from VCA, PDSA, Blue Cross.
