FOODS TOXIC
TO DOGS
This holiday season leads us to spoil everyone in our lives, but
be careful what you hand out to your furry friend.
• Chocolate
This indulgent treat can seriously endanger a dog’s health, even causing death.
Chocolate contains theobromine, a substance which has both a cardiac and a
diuretic effect on dogs. After consumption, a dog may feel overly excited and
thirsty.
• Onions and Garlic
These two food items contain thiosulphate, which could cause a form of anaemia
where the dog’s red blood cells burst. Symptoms include vomiting and diarrhea,
breathlessness and traces of blood in the urine.
• Macadamia Nuts
After consumption of macadamia nuts, dogs have been shown to have problems with
movement. Dogs can develop tremors, paralysis, swollen limbs and usually have
difficulty standing.
• Grapes or Raisins
The ingestion of grapes or raisins can cause a dog to have gastrointestinal
issues, including vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy and stomach pain.
• Coffee, Coffee Grounds, or Caffeine Rich Foods
The caffeine in foods can cause your dog’s heart rate to increase. This can
result in seizures, tremors, arrhythmias, vomiting, diarrhea, or difficulty
breathing.

Every
Thanksgiving, vets are certain to get calls from dogs who have participated in
the traditional Thanksgiving turkey dinner.
