The safeness of eating mashed potatoes for canines depends on the canine. For those who dont know, the mashed potatoes dish is a popular, flavorful meal made out of mashing boiled potatoes. Sometimes, theyre even included with gravy. Theyre quite tasty, so common sense might dictate that whats good for you (in moderation) is also okay with your dog. However, once and for all, can dogs eat mashed potatoes? Maybe, maybe not. Ask your vet. Your dog might have intolerance of lactose, so if youre going to feed them mashed potatoes that have milk in them, this might cause an allergic reaction to your pooch that will send him straight to the vet. If thats the case, then your dog is better off eating mashed potatoes without milk.

Other Than Lactose Intolerance, What Else Should You Watch Out For?

If your dog isnt lactose intolerant, then you can add milk to the mash potatoes mix, but otherwise, keep that milk out since many dogs cant digest lactose. A vet would know the symptoms of lactose intolerance, and theyre more than just farts and indigestion, an allergic reaction might also take place. Aside from that, the mash potatoes themselves should be fine for the dog to eat.

Can Dogs Eat Mashed PotatoesMashed potatoes should not be fed to your dog all at once. Feed them in accordance to their size, not yours. Sometimes, the dog doesnt know when to quit eating, so you should be the one to put your foot down and discipline them by letting them eat only a certain portion of food and thats all. Dont let them eat the mashed potatoes in large quantities because it could make them obese.

Mash potatoes have slightly contributed to the increase of (human) obesity in the United States because every serving of them contains sugar and carbs along with valuable nutrients, so they should be eaten moderately by you and by your dog so that you wont both end up overweight and risk possible ailments related to obesity.
