RECAP: CAN DOGS HAVE GRAVY? No, your pooch shouldn't really have gravy because it is packed full of salt which isn't good for dogs in large quantities and it can also add calories to their dinner without providing any nutrition.
If you get your gravy from a tin or sachet, be sure to check the ingredients before sharing any with your dog. Many gravies use onions or even garlic as a flavouring and these are very bad for your pet, so should be avoided. Also, check the salt content, and buy reduced-salt gravy if you can.
Onions - especially including concentrated onions in the form of stock cubes, gravy enhancers etc. So - NEVER give your dog a stock cube or human gravy thickeners etc.
The short answer is no, gravy is not good for dogs to eat. Gravy typically doesn't contain ingredients that are toxic to dogs, but it does contain a large amount of sodium. Large amounts of sodium are not good for your pup to eat.

What should be the main ingredient in homemade dog food?
Your dog needs protein (chicken, beef, lamb, duck, etc.), fat from meat or oil, carbohydrates like grains and vegetables, and essential fatty acids, often from plant based oil, oatmeal, and/or eggs. Eggshells provide a good amount of calcium, along with other dairy products.
Why is my dog not eating his food but will eat treats?
It is common for dogs to not eat their food, but eat treats or table scraps. This is referred to as partial anorexia and it typically occurs because your dog doesn't feel well.
A dog's digestive system is different from a human's. Typical human food is much too rich and fatty for a dog to properly digest; eating it can lead to vomiting, diarrhea and even more severe conditions like pancreatitis. Many human foods also contain an unhealthy amount of sodium for dogs.
Indeed, the statistical study showed that dogs fed with industrially processed food live an average of 10.4 years, while dogs fed with home-made food can reach an average age of 13.1 years. Increased lifespan is just one advantage of feeding your dog a raw food diet.
