It doesn't hurt your puppy to feed him treats once he's weaned and eating dog food, the ASPCA says, as long as they don’t make up more than 5 percent of his daily nutrient intake -- same as for adult dogs. A treat with honey is fine; honey is not one of the many human-safe foods that you should not give your dog.
Uses for Honey
Honey may help fight allergies, reduce stress and improve digestion in dogs. Most dogs love the sweet taste of honey, so you might be able to serve it to help mask medicines. Like peanut butter, you can mix honey with kibble or other treats and stuff it into a play-release toy or use it as an ingredient in homemade baked or frozen dog treats.
