Question

Can dogs eat popcorn?

Answer 1

Popcorn itself is not bad for dogs.

Plain, air-popped Popcorn makes a nice occasional treat for your dog.

But, kernels can get stuck in dogs' teeth and pose a choking hazard, so it is probably a good idea to keep whole or only partially popped kernels away from curious dogs.

Answer 2

Plain, air-popped popcorn is safe for dogs to eat in small quantities. Buttered popcorn or popcorn with other toppings is not safe for your dog on a regular basis, although eating a few dropped pieces here and there probably won't hurt him.
