Bananas are high in sugars,if your dog has any diabetic tendancies or is aging I would ask your vet to do blood tests to make sure its ok to give your dog the extra sugars.
The raw beans could cause gas,other then that they are ok for dogs, have you tried raw peas? We use them as training aids and the pits love them too.

considering alot of the healthy dog foods out today have peas and carrots in them, small amounts of green beans shouldn't hurt. maybe 1 or 2 beans depending on the size of your dog. I give my great Dane a small piece of banana with a dollop of peanut butter on it as a treat almost everyday. She loves it and does not hurt her in the slightest. Just make sure its very small amounts, due to dogs intestines can be easily disrupted by different foods its not used to.

Animals generally have great instincts and won't eat anything they think might be bad for them. If your dog loves bananas, it might be due to some type of nutrient missing in its day-to-day food which they "top-up" by eating bananas. Have you ever seen dogs eat GRASS? Same thing, they know it's okay and it will clear out their bowels (amazing, wish I knew what was good/not).

My bulldogs love bananas, green beans, carrots and peas. They eat the carrots raw, which curbs their chewing tendencies. If I steam green beans for dinner, I always do a double batch since I know my pooches will love them!
It's always best to feed your dog anything in moderation. But, in general, those vegetables are healthy additions to their diets. Bon Apetit!

Most fruits and veggies are great for dogs, just be careful with the bananas as too many can lead to constipation.

They're fine. I had one dog who was nuts about bananas. Mine also eat carrots, broccoli, lettuce, just about anything really....there are certain foods dogs shouldn't eat like chocolate, onions, raisins etc., but most human foods are fine.
Green beans are often recommended for dogs that need to lose weight, you replace some of their regular food with green beans.

I've never had a problem feeding banana's tomy dogs. They LOVE them. But one of them won't eat the green beans! She'll eat Carrots though.

My dog loves grapes. I don't give him too many, because I don't want him to get the runs, but I see no problem with giving your dog a bite or two of banana

I don't know about bananas, but our vet said green beans and carrots were ok.
