Go Loco for Coco(nut)

Yes, let’s go crazy for the tropical Coconut! Did you know that it had lots of health benefits for your furry pal? 

Our Coconut & Venison Bites

Smelly breath 

Let’s talk about that lovely smell for a minute. No one likes stinky dog breath, right? Coconut helps mask bad breath and in a crunchy treat helps scrub away unwanted bacteria that is the cause for the bad breath in the first place. 

Shiny coat and healthy skin

Many lotions and potions for us hoomans contain coconut. The oils lovely smell it enticing and great for the skin. Same goes for dogs. The anti-inflammatory properties of coconut help reduce dry, itchy skin and the fatty acids promote a healthy coat. 

We even use coconut oil on scratches and paws! 

Immune booster

Coconut is also an immune booster. Packed antioxidants it helps build a defence against bad bacteria, viruses, even parasites and fungi. This makes coconut a great snack for dogs at any time, even when they are not feeling 100%. 

What to watch out for

Don’t feed your dog any sweetened coconut. Make sure it’s not been overly processed with sugars or other chemical preservatives that are bad for your dog. 

Curtis giving a coconut a good sniff

Coconut water is not recommended due to high levels of potassium. 

Also stick to feeding guidelines. Coconut is part of a healthy diet and as with any treat should be given in moderation.
