What treats are safe for both puppies and adult dogs to share?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | German Shepherd | Female | spayed | 4 years and 9 months old | 109 lbs

I have 3 going to be 6 month old puppies on the 18th of this month & last year I did an Easter egg hunt with their momma with her kibbles & little treats & such. I wanted to do that this year for the puppies and the momma as well but I wondered if there are any suggestions on what treats are safe for both momma & puppies cause they can’t share the same kibbles. I thought maybe little fruits that are safe for dogs & maybe veggies or some kind of treat that’s safe for puppies & adult dogs Thanks:)

For something small like treats, you generally don’t need to worry about puppy formula us. You could use any type of dog treats and it would be fine for both mom and puppies. If you wanted to give them a little vegetables and fruits, dogs typically like peas, carrots and green beans. Apples and bananas are also often like to by pets too. I hope this answers your question and please feel free to post any additional questions.
