Spinach is a powerhouse of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. It boasts of vitamins A, B, C, and K plus iron, beta-carotene and fiber to help your dog’s digestive system. It’s no wonder dog owners feed their dogs’ spinach. But what are the health benefits of spinach for your dog? Let’s find out.

Spinach improves your dog’s overall health. Here some ways spinach can help your dog.

●      Healthy immune system– Spinach contains lots of Vitamin C which fortifies your dog’s immune system. This will help her fight off illnesses.

●      Good digestive system– Fibrous spinach aids your dog’s digestive system preventing both constipation and diarrhea.

●      Healthy skin and coat- Vitamin A can improve your dog’s skin, coat and hair. It also prevents skin diseases and dryness.

●      Strong bones-Like other leafy greens, spinach is packed with calcium. This mineral strengthens dogs’ bones and teeth.

Your dog can eat cooked spinach chopped into small pieces. Add small amounts of it to your dog’s food, or give it to her as a treat. You can have too much of a good thing, so if you choose to add spinach is to give it in small amounts. Always rinse the spinach leaves well to remove pesticides or bugs that may be on the leaves.
