Do dogs like Tomatoes?

Well yes and no. Your furry friend can indulge in some juicy, red tomatoes every now and then, however, there's a little something you should keep in mind.

Ripe tomatoes are safe for dogs to eat in moderation! However, it's important to avoid giving your pup unripe tomatoes or any part of the tomato plant, as they contain a toxic substance called tomatine.

Tomatoes are part of the nightshade family, which includes other veggies like peppers and eggplant. While these plants do have edible parts, they also contain potentially harmful elements. So, it's best to stick to ripe tomatoes as an occasional treat for your furry friend.

Tomatoes contain beneficial nutrients like vitamin C, potassium, and fiber. In this video, Russell is considering eating a ripe cherry tomato, and that is fine.
