Can dogs eat Goose blood?

Overview

Can dogs eat goose blood? Yes, protein-rich goose blood is a good source of iron, which helps maintain normal blood circulation. However, it should only be given as an occasional treat to prevent gastric distress. Long-term side effects include obesity.

Benefits

Goose blood is rich in protein and iron. It has more iron content than pig blood, chicken blood, or beef blood. Iron is essential in optimal blood circulation.

Risks

Goose blood is high in protein; excessive consumption can lead to weight gain and obesity.
Overconsumption of goose blood might also cause loose stool or diarrhea.
If not sourced hygienically, there's a risk that the goose blood might be contaminated with bacteria and parasites. Dogs are mostly resistant to salmonella infection. However, a dog with a weak immune system or existing digestive issues could be more susceptible to the infection.

Servings

Only source animal meat and blood from healthy livestock.
Cook the goose blood thoroughly to eliminate any potential bacteria and parasites.
For goose blood cake/curd, once boiled, let it cool down, then cut into small pieces, serve to your dog in moderation as an occasional treat.
