Sweet potato is super-full of vitamins, soft on your puppy or dog’s digestive tract, and a mineral-rich source of energy, to name three benefits of the veggie! Sweet potato contains no gluten whatsoever and is replete with Vitamin A, which your puppy will use for so many things- nervous system function, a beautiful coat, strong muscles, and healthy eyes. Maybe you’ve noticed, a lot of the recipes in our Nutro dog food reviews that are made without grains will contain sweet potato instead- that’s because they offer a different way for your dog to get some carbs while being safe for dogs who can’t tolerate gluten.
