Can Dogs Eat Potatoes?
🟢 Yes, in small amounts
Cooked, plain potato is fine in small amounts. Raw potatoes and green parts contain solanine and should be avoided.
How to give potatoes safely
- Boiled or baked, plain, without butter, salt or toppings.
- Never raw, green or sprouting potatoes.
- Skip fries and crisps (fat and salt).
If your dog ate too much
A dog that ate raw or green potatoes may vomit or have diarrhoea — call your vet if it seems weak or unwell.
