Can my Akita Chew Gum?

Whatever you do, do not let your Akita chew gum. Gum is not a healthy snacking alternative for dogs no matter what their shape, size, sex, age or breed. Gum does not digest and it can end up staying in your pup’s stomach causing digestive issues. Many gums are also sweetened with artificial sweeteners like Xylitol and Aspartame are toxic to dogs especially if eaten in large quantities. It’s important to keep your gum out of reach of your Akita. If he does get into it and eats large quantities or even small amounts, call your veterinarian right away. Your veterinarian Somerville, MA will know what’s best when it comes to gum and treating potential toxins from the sweeteners. If you’re looking for a way to keep your dog’s breath fresh, don’t rely on gum. Choose dental bones made from vegetables or other chewable treats that are good for keeping teeth clean and breath fresh.
