Most fruits are ok, but take out the seeds or pits. These contain toxins that harm your dog. My dogs really enjoy cored apples.

Here are some acceptable fruits/veggies (there are many more "safe" things as well, my advice is to do a little bit of research before feeding something you don't know is safe or not):
- carrots
- green beans
- peas (I prefer to give them still in the pod)
- lettuce
- strawberries
- blueberries
- apples (fruit only; the seeds contain toxins)
- kiwi
- blackberries
- raspberries
- bananas

Here is a list of plants, fruits, and vegetables that are toxic to dogs: http://www.acreaturecomfort.com/toxic.htm

The only reason I'm answering this question is because you spelled the breed correctly! ;)

Generally speaking, dogs do not require fruits, vegetables, nuts, legumes, etc. They are, by and large, carnivores, just like their ancestor wolves (yes, they do, occasionally, eat grass, but note that they throw-up shortly afterward; this is nature's way of "cleansing" them; it's perfectly fine).

Dogs can choke on the usually fibrous pieces of fruits, etc, even if they are sliced up. Having said that, my father used to give our Schipperke (a Belgian dog) raw, sliced, carrots, and, as far as we could tell, the dog suffered no ill effects.

Regardless, stick with dog food and made-for-dog treats. An occasional scrap from the dinner table is fine (avoid fatty and overcooked/burnt foods; your dog's not a garbage disposal).

sliced up apples are good. my dog absolutely loves them. just make sure you cut the seeds out(they're toxic to dogs) and that the pieces are small enough for it to eat and supervise him/her as they can choke on them.
