Many reasons. Even dogs like something sweet once in a while & we figure it's not going to hurt her if we don't go overboard & who knows? It may benefit her for all the same reasons we humans eat it. We gave our last dog honey also & she lived to be 16. Do I think the honey was the reason she lived that long? No; I couldn't say that but I certainly can say it didn't hurt her any.
We never give our dogs "junk" food. We are very careful with what we feed them; we are far more health conscious of their food than we are of our own so when there's something that's a treat for them that we feel won't hurt them we give it.
