It happens from time to time, that we run out of dog food for our beloved puppies, But don’t worry there are some foods in your fridge that your furry companion can eat without an issue.

Not only are some of the foods that you are eating are good to go for your pet as well, but there are also certain foods that will improve their health and immune system too.

Warning: Before giving any of the following to your pet, talk to their vet first!

1. Carrots 

Healthy snacks for both us and our dogs. For your canine friends, carrots actually have dental health benefits. They are rich in vitamins and help them with their digestion.

3. Eggs 

Eggs are full of amino acids and vitamins that are good for your dog. In addition, crushing the eggshells and then feeding them to your pet, will strengthen their bones and improve their teeth.
