Why Carrots and Apples?

Carrots: The Crunchy Superfood

Carrots are packed with fiber, beta-carotene, and vitamin A, which are all essential for your dog’s health. Here’s why they’re a great ingredient:

✔️ Great for Vision & Skin – Vitamin A helps maintain healthy eyes, skin, and coat.✔️ Low in Calories – Perfect for dogs watching their weight.✔️ Natural Dental Cleaner – The crunchiness helps reduce plaque buildup.

Apples are another dog-friendly fruit that adds natural sweetness and fiber.

✔️ Rich in Vitamins – Loaded with vitamin C and antioxidants.✔️ Good for Digestion – The fiber in apples promotes a healthy gut.✔️ Low in Fat – A great treat option for all dogs, even seniors.

Note: Always remove apple seeds and cores, as they contain cyanogenic compounds that can be harmful to dogs.
