Can dogs eat Cinnamon?
Feed with caution
Small amounts only, and not right for every pet.
Tiny culinary amounts of plain cinnamon may be tolerated by many dogs, but concentrated oils, supplements, and heavily seasoned dishes are not safe defaults. Powder can irritate the mouth or lungs; avoid essential oil.
Before you feed it
- Tiny incidental culinary amounts only
- Avoid essential oils and concentrated supplements unless veterinarian-directed
- Avoid dishes with onion, garlic, salt, or heavy fat
