Satsumaimo • さつまいも • Sweet Potato

Sweet potato is a safe, healthy, and natural treat for dogs, offering a range of health benefits. Sweet potatoes promotes a healthy digestive system because of their high dietary fiber content. Eating fiber on a regular basis lowers the risk of heart disease and certain types of cancers. They’re also low in fat and contain essential vitamins like A, B6, and C, and is rich source of potassium, calcium, and iron.

It also contains beta-carotene is an antioxidant that helps reduce the risk of certain types of cancer while simultaneously providing protection against heart disease. It converts to Vitamin A for dogs, which is essential to promote healthy skin, coat, eyes, nerves, and muscles in dogs. 

One of the main reasons for adding fiber to a dog’s diet is to encourage regular, healthy bowel movements. Sweet potatoes are also used to alleviate constipation and diarrhoea, depending on the fiber type. Some diets have higher fiber content to displace calories, increase a feeling of fullness, and help a pet lose weight.

If your dog has not tasted sweet potato before, do take note of how your dog reacts to it, adjusting to new food may mean an upset tummy, but if it is prolonged, you might want to try another alternative.

They should not be eaten raw, but as a Kuro Snack, it is dehydrated at a temperature of at least 70°C for at least 8 hours. This is to that they are easier to chew and is less likely to upset your dog’s tummy or cause any intestinal blockage.
