It’s not that dogs are not given human food. In fact, there are occasions when dogs are given food that humans enjoy. Say for Thanksgiving or a holiday party, dogs are given leftovers and that is basically human food.

Dogs enjoy these changes. It is something different from their daily diet so it’s good for them.

There are a few varieties of food and treats that dogs enjoy a lot. Like turkey or chicken meat, lean red meat, carrots and fish.

Basically dogs need the same nutrients to grow and be healthy as we need. So dogs can eat what we eat, as long as it healthy, not large portions and not all the time.
