Pumpkin pie safe for dogs?
Pumpkin pie is safe for dogs, even if it does not contain pumpkin spice. The ingredients that go into pumpkin pies are, for the most part, safe to be eaten by dogs. Pumpkin spice is an exception.
Pumpkin spice or pumpkin pie spice is a mixture of spices that includes cinnamon, ginger and clove. Although cinnamon and ginger can be beneficial to dogs, clove, nutmeg and allspice may cause toxic reactions in small amounts. These spices are safe for dogs if they do manage to get a piece of pie. However, if the spice is used in large amounts or frequently, it can cause toxic reactions.
You should not give your dog pumpkin pie from the grocery store. It can be difficult to tell how many spices have been used or what additions were made. Pumpkin pie filling from a can also contains blended spices, artificial sweeteners and preservatives that are unsafe for dogs.
Consider whether your dog will eat sugary foods. Although a small amount of sugary pie will not cause any immediate harm, long-term feedings can have a negative impact on their health and lead to unhealthy eating habits. If you plan to give pumpkin pie to your dog, make sure it is homemade using safe and friendly ingredients.
Pumpkin pie’s nutritional value
