Crackers: Safe for Dogs and Cats?

A plain cracker or two is unlikely to harm a dog, but the salt content and additives like onion or garlic seasoning make crackers a food that should not be given regularly.

Plain crackers are not toxic to cats but are high in sodium and carbohydrates with no nutritional benefit, and seasoned crackers containing onion or garlic can cause illness, so they should only be an occasional taste at most.
