One IMPORTANT thing you need to be cautious in feeding your dog an apple are the seeds. APPLE SEEDS contain trace amounts of substance called amygdlin which is a form of cyanide and it is very poisonous. Cyanide hinders the blood from carrying oxygen throughout the body. If your dog swallows a few seeds, their body will detoxify itself. However, crucial harm can occur if your dog consumed large amounts of apple seeds, A simple suggestion on

Oh! Yes, Apples are YUMMY tasty low fat-treat
but must have it only in moderation especially when
I have to watch my waistline (Just like my friend Sammie).
Here’s the recipe … Enjoy!
Apple Cinnamon Chips
1 Apple (preferably Fuji or Honey Apples – great for baking)
Preheat oven 300 degrees.
Cut the apples into bites size (depending on the size of your dog)
(Take Note: do not cut it too small and too thin because Apples shrink when baked)
Place the apples on the baking sheet or pan.
Sprinkle it with cinnamon.
Bake it for 20 minutes.
Let it cool before serving.
Optional: Serve it with (homemade) apple sauce

We will try that Sugar, thank you. We have both started eating apples and that seems to be our favourite – neither of us is at all keen on bananas.
Our mum thinks we would like your recipe and it is very simple.
Of course we will insist on the large white plate with the drizzle of apple sauce – presentation, we are sure you will agree, is everything to us dogs!!!
love and kisses

mmmm looks very yummy
Yumzers and mom says, "so very pretty too!" Your mom is such a good cook – my mumzer doesn't make too much for me – I always seem to be on a diet ugh. I keep getting into things that the kids drop when they come over, or other dogs' treats hehee! You look perpetually bootiful, Sugar and it's probably due to great treats like this!
Hugs xo
Sammie
Hi Sugar, how sweet of you stop by our blog. We see you have a lot of the same furiends as we do. We are going to read back a few blogs to find out more about you. You are a very beautiful golden girl.

Hi Sugar! They look so good! I'm going to share them with my crew!
Have a nice night Sugar!
I love the fact that you put applesauce on the plate for Sugar!
And people say we spoil our 'babies'!

I think I want to make those for myself!!!

Sugar those apples look delicious. Our Mom is definitely going to make some of those. I just hope she doesn't take them all for herself, but I think she will share with us. They look terrific.
That sounds delicious! You are one lucky girl Sugar! Bon Appetit.
Hmmm… Yummy! Mom eats something like that. I'll tell her it's good for me too.
Thanks for visiting my blog. Mom said she loves your white face.
Love, Kimba
I will have to try those chips. They look very easy and tasty. I love apples. Come over to myqualityday.blogspot.com and claim an award, Sugar.

Suddenly I can smell apples and cinnamon! I'm gonna tell Mom to make those for me, and not to eat them all herself!!

Oh my goodness Sugar! You are beautiful! I was just about to run to the store to get some apples for my moose based on one of the suggestions from another reader. I knew it was ok to give apples to dogs but was not sure if they were good for them or not so your post was most informative!
If you give up on Kongs then the carrot shoved in there would probably be more than you were interested in. My Moose has ridiculously strong jaws so he can get the carrot out in no time! It is nice meeting you and I will have to poke around more later. THanks for stopping by!
Hi Sugar! Wow those apples sure do look yummy!! They've one of my fav fruits! Mommy sometimes give me a piece and it would last me say 10-15 minutes. I just had to modify it's shape!
Cheers,
Maxx
Hi Sugar,
Happy to meet you…
Our mom has had 3 Goldens and you remind her of long-lost Brandy (RIP).
Mom's gonna try the apple snacks!

Hey Sugar! I'm you 100th follower, that's pretty cool!
Your apple recipe sounds yummy. It's a good thing the humans here didn't mash all of the apples into cider.
Thanks for visitin my blog.

Hi Sugar, One of my moms favorite dawgs was a golden. He was such a sweet guy. I am glad you found my blog. I have you bookmarked now.
I like apples too. Yummm. I like them fresh when mom eats them in the evening. She also dehydrates them for me. I'll have to tell her about the cinnamon though. Beautiful presentation picture there.

Hi Sugar!
Thanks for coming over to sniff around on my blog! It's always great to meet new furiends!! I only have one other Golden pal, Max from South Africa. That was some great info in your post (didn't know about the apple seeds) – you are a smart ol' gal. What a great pedigree too (we love GOG, being agility competitors ourselves). You also have a fantastic-looking blog – so well laid-out & organized!!
Look forward to learning more about you, Sugar!
