Fish

Fish is one human food dogs can eat—so long as it isn’t raw. And certain types of fish are healthier for your dog than others. Salmon, ocean whitefish, and herring, for example, are fish that live short lives, so they have lower levels of mercury compared to fish near the top of the food chain like, say, swordfish.

Fish is also a great source of protein for your dog if he or she has allergic reactions to other types of meat.
