It is ok to give your pet french fries every now and again (1-2 times a week at most). Just remember that pets can become picky if they get anything other than their regular pet food. However, there are no toxicity concerns here with french fries, olive oil and a tiny amount of salt. I hope this is helpful! Take care of that fur baby!
