Feeding advice:One or two berries per serving, without reducing main-diet intake; cats cannot taste sweetness, so acceptance varies.
Preparation:Wash and halve to avoid swallowing them whole.
DogSafe

Low in calories and a source of anthocyanins and fibre, which makes them handy for training rewards.

Feeding advice:A few berries per serving depending on size (1-3 for a small dog), keeping treats to no more than about 10% of daily energy intake.
Preparation:Rinse well and remove stems; halve them for small dogs to reduce choking risk.
