Can Dogs Have Pistachios? Risks and Considerations

  • "Can dogs have pistachios?" is a common question among pet owners. While pistachios are not toxic to dogs, they are not recommended due to potential health risks. Pistachios are high in fat, which can lead to digestive issues or pancreatitis in dogs if consumed in large amounts. Additionally, the shells can cause choking or intestinal blockages, and salted pistachios can lead to dehydration or kidney problems. It's best to avoid giving your dog pistachios and instead opt for safer, dog-friendly treats to ensure your pet’s health and well-being. Always consult your vet before introducing new foods to your dog.
