Do dogs need raw vegetables cooked or pureed for proper digestion?

Question

Thanks for answering my question Melanie! im confused I thought dogs couldn't digest raw vegetables at all. I thought they at least had to be cooked or if fed raw, puréed to be digested? Pet's info: Dog | Cavalier King Charles Spaniel | Female | spayed | 4 years and 9 months old | 17 lbs

You are welcome! I'm sorry you are confused! Your previous post was asking if she could still get nutrients from the veggies if they are cooked and whole. That's what I was answering. You are correct that raw veggies need to be pureed to be digested, and I meant to type whole or pureed in regards to the cooked veggies so that was my mistake! I apologize for that! I hope this clears this up :-)
