It happens to all of us: We just get that urge to eat some sweet,
delicious chocolate. How could you not? We’d all love to share that
amazing taste with our dogs, but we can’t. So carob is a
dog-friendly substitute for chocolate. With all the same great sweet
richness that makes chocolate a delight to eat, carob is made from
the bean pods of the carob tree. It is 100% natural and 100%
healthy for dogs and even gives them some pretty great health
benefits.
Carob contains as much vitamin B1 as asparagus or strawberries; the
same amount of niacin as lima beans, lentils, or peas; and more
vitamin A than eggplant, asparagus, and beets. It's also high in
vitamin B2, calcium, magnesium, and iron. So next time you’re
sitting on the couch treating yourself to some tasty chocolate,
don’t forget about your canine companion, throw a little Carob his
way – you can indulge together.
