It’s only natural for dogs to be curious. But their curiosity can get them into trouble when they get into areas where you store household items such as medicine and detergents. Many common household items that you use everyday can be harmful, and sometimes even lethal, to your dog.
Foods that are harmful to your dog:
May cause vomiting, abdominal pain and/or diarrhea:
Wild cherry
Japanese Plum
Almond
Apricot
Balsam Pear
May cause varied reactions:
Yeast dough
Coffee grounds
Macadamia nuts
Tomato and potato leaves and stems
Avocados
Onions and onion powder
Grapes
Raisins
Chocolate
Pear and peach kernels
Mushrooms (if also toxic to humans)
Rhubarb
Spinach
Alcohol
Symptoms of possible poisoning are: vomiting, diarrhea, difficult breathing, abnormal urine (color,
aroma or odor, frequency, etc.), salivation, weakness. If your dog should ingest harmful chemicals,
contact a veterinarian or poison control center immediately.
