Can dogs eat radishes?

Yes, in small amounts

AKC says radishes are safe for dogs in moderation, though not every dog likes the taste. The greens can cause gastroenteritis, and whole radishes or large pieces can be a choking hazard (AKC).

How to serve it: greens removed, washed and peeled, cut small, unseasoned

Good to know: Horseradish isn’t a radish and can cause an upset stomach; wild radish isn’t safe for dogs (AKC).
