can dogs have popcorn

Dogs can eat popcorn, but only if it is plain, air-popped, and given in moderation. Popcorn with butter, salt, caramel, or other seasonings is not safe for dogs because these toppings can cause digestive issues, obesity, pancreatitis, or even toxicity. Additionally, unpopped or partially popped kernels should be avoided as they can pose a choking hazard or cause dental problems. Plain popcorn can be a fiber-rich, occasional treat but should not exceed about 10% of a dog's daily calorie intake.
