Foods Harmful to Dogs

Foods that are healthy for humans are not necessarily healthy for dogs. Grapes and raisins (dried grapes) are toxic to most dogs and even small amounts can kill them. Other potentially toxic foods include: chocolate, avocado, bread dough, macadamia nuts, onions, garlic, alcohol and chewing gum (containing the toxic sweetener Xylitol as well as a choking hazard).

This is not a complete list. As a rule of thumb, be safe and consult your veterinarian with any questions regarding your dog’s diet.
