In this article, we’ll explore 22 common foods that can be toxic to dogs. As responsible owners, it’s important to be aware of these dangers to ensure the safety and well-being of our four-legged companions.
Avocados Avocados
contain a fungicidal toxin called persin, which is harmless to humans but dangerous to dogs. It can cause fluid to build up in the dog’s lungs and chest, making breathing difficult.
Garlic Garlic is toxic to dogs due to a compound called thiosulfate. Dogs cannot digest this compound, which causes their red blood cells to rupture.
Macadamia Nuts
Macadamia nuts are extremely fatty and can irritate dogs’ stomachs, causing nausea, diarrhea, severe weakness, and even temporary paralysis.
Chocolate
