Many pet owners unknowingly give their pets certain foods that are toxic to their systems and can be deadly. Or the pet ingests them by accident or because they "eat everything". Please be careful to not let your dog have access to the following foods:
COMMON POISONOUS FOODS AND DRUGS:
Grapes and Raisins
Macadamia Nuts
Tomato
Chives
Avacado
Raw Egg
Corn on the Cobb
Nicotine (eating cigarette butts off ground)
Chocolate
Alcoholic Beverages (even a tiny amount)
Pain Relievers (NSAIDS)
Tylenol
Advil
St. Josephs
Motrin
Use caution with Pepto-Bismol and Kaopectate, consult your vet first
Laxatives
Sleeping Pills
Tea
Onions
Xylitol (in many foods, candy, gum, breath mints. Toy size dogs who are carried around in your purse can potentially die from eating a stick of gum!
Bread Dough (left out on the counter to rise and a dog eats it and then it will expand in their stomach from their body heat and they can die).
Peanuts (some dogs can be deathly allergic, just like people)
The above is not a complete list

*************************************************
If you suspect your dog has eaten something poisonous or been bitten and is having a reaction, rush them to the vet and try and bring along whatever it was they encountered, ate or the vomitus. It truly is an emergency!
