Xylitol: Some sugar-free jellies contain xylitol, among other artificial sweeteners. Xylitol is highly toxic to dogs; even a tiny amount can lead to severe health issues. Therefore, you should never give your dog jelly containing xylitol or other sweeteners.

Dogs should not consume jelly due to the sugar content and any potential toxic ingredients such as artificial sweeteners like xylitol. It's best to opt for homemade jelly treats or vet-approved jelly mixes specifically formulated for canine consumption to ensure their safety and avoid such harmful ingredients.

Only use unflavored and unsweetened gelatin for your dogs to make it a healthy treat. For an adult dog, gelatin can make up half of their dietary protein intake. However, always start slowly when introducing a new ingredient to your dog. We recommend just two teaspoons a day for a 50 to 75 lb dog.

Foods like jelly that are high in sugar content can cause severe health issues if eaten frequently or in large quantities. Your dog can develop diabetes, obesity, or heart issues from loads of jelly consumption. Because of this, it's best to keep jelly away from your dog.
