It's time to increase the exercise routine and try to eat healthier. That means our pets can too! Did you know that there are many fruits that we can feed our pets that have added benefits to  their diet?

Below are some great choices that your pet will surely enjoy. Be sure to wash all fruits and remove rinds, inedible skins, seeds, and pits before feeding to pets.

  • Apricot

  • Banana

  • Blueberries
