No, we wouldn’t recommend that you try and feed corn dogs to your dog. If your dog was to eat a bit of a corn dog they should be fine but overall we completely recommend not to try and feed a corn dog to your dog or let them eat one by accident.
Why Not?
The reason a dog should not be eating a corn dog is because of a few reasons:
- high in fat content
- high in salt
- lots of preservatives

- possibly garlic or onions which are toxic to dogs
For all of these reasons it is a really bad idea to try and feed corn dogs to your dog.
Dogs that are exposed to a lot of fat are at risk of pancreatitis and also dogs who eat a lot of salt can also get salt poisoning.
