No, dogs should not eat smoked salmon. Smoked salmon is high in sodium; when consumed in large amounts, dogs might develop many health issues when consumed in large quantities. High sodium food is especially harmful to dogs with heart and kidney conditions.

Risks

health-risks
  • Smoked salmon undergoes a curing process which makes it high in sodium. Allowing dogs to eat it, especially in large quantities will put them at risk of kidney disease and sodium poisoning.
  • Smoked salmon is not cooked, only cured, so it may still contain parasites, flukes, and bacteria that can cause salmon poisoning.
