Can dogs eat Cherry?
Feed with caution
Small amounts only, and not right for every pet.
Pitted cherry flesh is not toxic, but it is sugary and must be served only rarely. Pits, stems, and leaves are unsafe.
Before you feed it
- Remove pits, stems, and leaves
- Pit ingestion is an emergency risk
- Feed only tiny amounts of plain flesh
How much is safe
1 pitted cherry occasionally for medium/large dogs
