Wheat is safe for most dogs in moderation, but some may have allergies or sensitivities. As a grain, wheat provides fiber and nutrients. However, wheat contains gluten which can trigger reactions in sensitive dogs. Symptoms may include itching, ear infections, or digestive issues. If your dog has never had wheat, introduce it slowly and watch for any adverse reactions. Avoid wheat if your dog has a known allergy or sensitivity.
Please Note: I'm not a veterinarian or dietician.
I've strived to find accurate information and tried to remove any ambiguities. I've re-checked these items multiple times for accuracy, but it's always possible that something slipped through unnoticed. If anything's incorrect, please let me know so I can fix it.
When in doubt, ask your veterinarian.
It's important to note that while some items may not be directly toxic, quantity plays a major role. Many human foods are high in salt, sugar, and fat, for example, which can be unhealthy for dogs if consumed regularly or in large amounts.
Remember, even "safe" things can be dangerous in high enough quantities.
