Detailed Information

Blueberries are one of the best fruits for dogs. They are packed with antioxidants (especially anthocyanins), fiber, vitamin C, and vitamin K, while being very low in calories. They make excellent training treats due to their small size. Both fresh and frozen blueberries are safe. Their small size makes them appropriate for dogs of all sizes. Feed in moderation — excessive amounts can cause GI upset due to fiber content.
