The Ultimate Guide to 5 Diabetes-Friendly Treats for Dog’s Optimal Canine Health
Like humans, the most effective way to a dog's heart is through their stomach. And haven't we all given our pets those extra treats and food to win over their massively goofy smiles?
Unfortunately, our pets' diabetes is also a problem we have to deal with, with those extra sugary-sweet treats or because of genetic reasons. If your pet has been diagnosed with diabetes, it is natural for you to feel concerned and a little worried - especially when you have to rethink those treats and change their diet.
At Lord Jameson, we understand the importance of your pets' physical health and mental well-being. With increased rates of diabetes in dogs, we have developed organic treats specially crafted for diabetic dogs.
After considering their unique dietary needs, we have curated a selection of delicious organic treats to provide a safe and mouth watering option for your furry friend. We focus on catering to your pets' health requirements and offer a delightful snacking experience you don't have to miss out on. Read on to learn more about our collections!
How are Diabetes-Friendly Dog Treats Different From Regular Treats?
Every dog treat is tailor-made to address the unique dietary needs with a specialized formula. Conventional treats often contain high levels of sugar and carbohydrates, and diabetic dog treats are carefully prepared with a focus on low-glycemic ingredients.
These aim to help regulate blood sugar levels in diabetic dogs to promote overall health. We also include wholesome and natural ingredients, steering clear of artificial additives, sugars or excessive fillers that adversely affect a dog's well-being. We emphasize balanced and diabetes-friendly recipes to offer you a thoughtful solution.
If you want to indulge your furry companion while managing their health effectively, consider our collection for diabetic dogs.
Can Non-Diabetic Dogs Eat These Treats?
You may have multiple pets, and only one is diabetic. Or, perhaps your furry friend is pre-diabetic, and you are unsure if these treats are safe.
Diabetic dog treats are specifically formulated to meet the dietary requirements of dogs with diabetes, but non-diabetic dogs can also consume these in moderation. Pets who don't have diabetes can enjoy these treats as a part of a balanced diet. The wholesome, flavorful ingredients are a delightful addition that prioritizes low glycemic options and avoids excessive sugars.
Pet parents should, however, factor in portion sizes, pet's age and size and overall activity level to ensure that the treats don't contribute to excess calories. As always, consider consulting with your veterinarian to determine the appropriateness of the diet as a whole.
What to Consider When Purchasing Dog Treats for a Diabetic Dog
Organic dog treats for diabetic dogs may sound tricky, but it is about adequately considering some factors that support your pet's health and well-being.
1. Low glycemic ingredients
Ingredients with low glycemic index help regulate blood sugar levels and prevent high-sugar spikes.
2. Portion size
Take the size of the treats and the ingredients list to manage the calorie intake, prevent overindulgence and prepare the perfect portion size.
3. No added sugars
It is the best option to avoid dog treats with added sugars. Sharing human foods with high calories also undermines the purpose of a diabetic-friendly diet.
4. High fiber content
By choosing treats rich in fiber you aid in better digestion, slow down sugar absorption, and contribute to feeling satiated.
5. Natural ingredients
Organic treats are made with natural, whole-food ingredients. They avoid artificial additives, preservatives, and fillers, which harm your furry friend's health.
6. Carbohydrate content
If you expect a balanced and controlled intake to support diabetic management, be mindful of the overall carbohydrate content in the treats.
You can make informed choices while selecting organic dog treats for diabetic dogs by considering these factors. This will promote a healthy, enjoyable, tasty snacking experience for your furry companions. Always consult with a veterinarian if you have any specific doubts about ingredients.

More Tips for Treats and Diabetes Management
|
✔ Gradual introduction Introduce new treats gently and gradually, checking how your dog reacts. This will help you identify allergies and sensitivities and adjust the treat selection accordingly. |
|
✔ Consult with a vet Always consult your veterinarian before making any major changes in your pet's diet/lifestyle. That way, they can provide personalized advice based on your pet's health and needs. |
|
✔ Balance is the key Maintain a healthy balance between treats, regular meals and regular exercise. Adjust meals and treats based on additional calories and maintain a proper weight. |
|
✔ Sugar-free Caution Even if some treats say they are sugar-free, they may contain artificial sweeteners like xylitol - which is toxic to dogs. Check the ingredient list and consider organic, no-preservative and GMO-free options to keep potentially harmful substances away.
