⚠️ With caution

Coconut oil is heavily marketed for dogs but evidence is thin. Small amounts OK; large amounts = weight gain + pancreatitis.

How much can a dog have?

¼ tsp per 5 kg body weight, occasionally.

MCTs may help cognition in senior dogs (some evidence).

High saturated fat, pancreatitis trigger, weight gain.

Most dogs do fine without it. Skip for predisposed-to-pancreatitis breeds.
