Salmon

Sake • • Salmon

We love our Salmon but can dogs have Salmon? Can cats have Salmon? Why, of course, they can! Salmon is not only safe for cats and dogs, but Salmon is good for them. Salmon is a great source of omega-3 fatty acids that support the immune system, decreases inflammation, and can keep your dog’s coat looking fabulous. It’s also a good protein source and a good alternative if your dog has certain allergies, like chicken.

Take Note
It is important not to give your dog raw or undercooked salmon. It can contain the Neorickettsia helminthoeca parasite, which causes salmon poisoning disease. This disease can be fatal. You also have to be careful of small bones, which are brittle and can choke your dog or get lodged in his stomach or intestines. As with any new diet, If you are uncertain if your cat/dog can consume anything or if you’re wondering about a change in diet, please consult your veterinarian.
