10 Things that are bad for your dog! Some of them may surprise you. -
🍿🥨🍟 Salt/Sodium
High salt intake in your dog can lead to sodium ion poisoning. Symptoms of this are vomiting, diarrhea, seizures, and tremors.
-
☕️🍵🍫 Caffeine
Caffeine in any form, such as coffee, tea, and chocolate, can be extremely harmful to your pets.
-
🍭 🍬🍰 Xylitol
A sweetener that can be found in sugar-free candies, gums, and pastries, is extremely toxic to dogs even in tiny doses. If your dog ingests any of this substance, they are likely to experience insulin spikes, seizures, low blood sugar, liver failure and even death. -
🍗🍖 cooked bones
Once bones are cooked, they become brittle and are more likely to dangerously splinter. When it comes to cooked bones, the worst case scenarios are broken teeth and blockages of intestinal tracts.
-
🥗 Onions
While both of these foods are extremely common in human dishes, they contain disulfides and sulfoxides which cause anemia and damage red blood cells in our pups. -
🍫🍩🍪 chocolate
The dangerous substance in chocolate is called theobromine, and levels of the chemical are determined by the color of the candy – for example, the darker the chocolate, the higher the risk of death.
-
🍇 grapes
Even a small dose of grapes or raisins can be devastating for your dog’s health. The small fruit can easily cause kidney failure and end up with your furry friend undergoing dialysis.
-
🥑 Avocado
The most dangerous part of this delicious food is undoubtedly the slippery inner pit. Not only is it a choking hazard, but it is full of a chemical called persin. This substance can cause diarrhea, vomiting and heart congestion.
-
🥜 Macadamia nuts
It is undetermined what it is about macadamia nuts that is poisonous to dogs, but vets agree that they are indeed unhealthy. Symptoms can include depression, vomiting, weakness, joint or muscle pain, gait, swelling of joints, paralysis, and even death.

Can you guess the 10th? And what it can cause? What are some other things dog owners need to be aware of?
