Can Dogs Have Deviled Eggs?

With Easter right around the corner, I’ve been gathering the ingredients for my famous Deviled eggs. This got me thinking if my furry friend could have a bite or two as an Easter snack.

Unfortunately for my furry friend, she can’t have the tasty treat because it contains mayonnaise, mustard, and different seasonings that are not for canine consumption. However, she’ll be happy to know that dogs can safely consume unseasoned cooked eggs, as reported by the American Kennel Club. They're pretty darn healthy as they “are high in protein, fatty acids, [and] vitamins.” That said, even large breed dogs should be limited to only one egg a day, no matter how much they beg.

In addition, please consult your dog’s vet before introducing new food into your dog’s diet!
