I had not idea fruit was good for dogs... I knew about grapes but I thought my dog couldn't have any. I will try bananas with my dog as he only has 4 teeth left. Thank you for these tips and just subscribed

My Chester likes to play with watermelon, but he doesn't actually eat it! I had no idea about oranges though.... I'll try that one soon 😊🐶

Thanks for the information Dr. Lisa. Good to know about grapes and cherry pits.

Holy cow, I thought I knew everything to keep my doggos healthy but I had no clue how detrimental a single grape could be!

I love your channel! If you're taking video suggestions, could you make one regarding the importance of exercise and the psychological & physical benefits it provides dogs? I feel like so many owners think their dogs are happy just having a backyard to play in - not realizing how dogs actually require that visual stimulation to maintain their mental health.. I read that in one of Caesar Milan's books lol (in like 2009!) 🤦

Oh! And the importance of dental health!!! I learned this the hard way after rescuing a stray. I knew she had bad breath/teeth but it wasn't until I found a rotten tooth and took her to our pet dentist that she had SEVERE periodontal disease that was harming her nasal cavity! We had all but 3 of her teeth removed and she turned into the happiest dog I have ever seen in my life.

Thank you so much! Sorry for the novel, I'm just so passionate about providing the best life for our balls of teeth & fur! I love that you're using this platform to provide such helpful and transparent information! You're awesome!
