Just Say No To Sugar: Why Dogs Should Never Eat Sugar (And Neither Should You) | Short

Jan 29, 2025

In this episode, I’m talking about a topic that’s really important but often overlooked—sugar and its negative effects on dogs. I explain why sugar weakens the immune system, causes inflammation, and contributes to chronic diseases like cancer. I also share my own experiences with sugar and how I’ve learned to manage it, both for myself and for my dogs. If you’re feeding your dog anything with added sugars, you might want to rethink it.

Key points in this episode:

  • Sugar weakens the immune system and promotes inflammation in both dogs and humans.
  • Processed sugars like glucose, sucrose, and honey-coated treats are particularly harmful.
  • Sugar contributes to chronic diseases such as cancer and can lead to high blood sugar in dogs.
  • Always check labels—sugar is sneaky and often hides in dog food and treats.
