Does your dog sniff the air or drool at your feet when you cook a steak dinner or burgers on the grill? If you’ve ever looked into those sweet pleading eyes and wished you could just slip your pup a morsel of tasty beef, today is your lucky day. We’ll explain why sharing beef with your dog might actually be a good idea.
Can My Dog Eat Beef?
Actually, unless your dog is allergic to beef, they probably already consume it regularly. Beef is a lean protein and a key ingredient in many commercially available dog foods. At Ollie, we even have a recipe starring this tasty protein.
Not only is beef the key ingredient in many dog foods, it is also used to make dog treats! There are tons of treats on the market that use beef to boost flavor so your pup will feel truly rewarded. A quick search over at Chewy.com yields over 2,000 results for treats with beef (or beef flavoring).
If your pup has ever had an upset stomach, you might remember the vet suggesting a bland diet. Boiled (yeah, we know – yuck) ground beef with all of the fat removed mixed with plain white rice is a common recipe to help soothe an upset digestive system.
