Yorkies can eat bananas

People will choose to eat bananas to clear their intestines when their intestines and stomach are not smooth, and dogs can do it too. Bananas contain sucrose, which can promote the increase of beneficial bacteria in the intestines and help intestinal peristalsis. Eating bananas when dogs are constipated can promote intestinal peristalsis and has the effects of clearing the stomach and laxatives.

How much banana should Yorkshire Terriers eat

Puppies: It is best not to eat bananas, because the intestines of puppies are very fragile. Eating bananas can easily irritate the intestines and stomach, leading to diarrhea.
Adult dogs: You can eat bananas, but they must be in small amounts. Feed about half a banana at a time.
Elderly dogs: They can eat bananas, but their gastrointestinal function begins to deteriorate, so the amount they eat is smaller than that of adult dogs.
