Many French Bulldog owners like to give their companions the occasional fresh fruit or vegetable as a snack, myself included. After all, they’re healthy for us so they must be good for our French Bulldogs too right?
This simply is not true, as French Bulldogs don’t have the same nutritional requirements as humans, so foods that are good for us are not necessarily good for them, and may even be toxic.
Although fresh fruits and vegetables are packed with nutrients, if your French Bulldog is fed a well balanced diet they shouldn’t need any additional vitamins or minerals.
Evidence suggests that dogs are naturally carnivores, so feeding them too many fruits can upset their digestive system, especially as they are high in natural sugar. The key to feeding your French Bulldog fruit is moderation, they should be an occasional treat only, rather than a dietary staple.
A widely used rule of thumb is The 10% Rule – Treats in general should not make up more than 10% of your French Bulldog’s diet, in terms of calories.
