Can dogs eat watermelon?

Yes — fine in small amounts

Refreshing on a hot day. Remove the seeds and rind.

How much

A few cubes, or frozen

Being honest about this

Dogs differ, and amount matters — a crumb of something rich is not the same as half a packet. Treats of any kind should stay under a tenth of what your dog eats in a day. If you're unsure, your vet would far rather take the call.
