Can Pembroke Welsh Corgis Eat Apples?
Apples are a safe, crunchy, and nutritious treat for dogs. They provide vitamin C, vitamin A, and fiber. Always remove the core and seeds, as apple seeds contain small amounts of cyanide.
🐕 Pembroke Welsh Corgi-Specific Guidance
Pembroke Welsh Corgis are a small breed (25–30 lbs), so portions should be very small compared to larger dogs.
Pembroke Welsh Corgis are prone to obesity. Factor any treats (including apples) into the daily calorie total — treats should not exceed 10% of daily calories.
Nutrition Notes
Good source of vitamin A, vitamin C, and dietary fiber. Low in protein and fat, making them a healthy treat option. About 19 calories per slice.
Serving Guidance
Wash thoroughly, remove the core and all seeds, and cut into manageable slices. Small dogs: 1–2 slices. Large dogs: 3–4 slices. Can be served fresh or frozen.
Risks to Know
Apple seeds contain amygdalin, which releases cyanide when digested — always remove the core. The stem can be a choking hazard. Too much apple can cause stomach upset due to fiber content.
