Human Foods that Poison Pets

My wife and I are guardians to three dogs. I have lived with dogs my entire life. I also consider myself a fairly well informed person when it comes to dogs. But today I stumbled across some information that I did not know and thought I would pass it on to my fellow dog guardians out there.

The following is a list of food that is potentially poisonous for you dogs.

  • Pear pips, the kernels of plums, peaches and apricots, apple core pips (contain cyanogenic glycosides resulting in cyanide posioning)
  • Potato peelings and green looking potatoes
  • Rhubarb leaves
  • Mouldy/spoiled foods
  • Alcohol
  • Yeast dough
  • Coffee grounds, beans & tea (caffeine)
  • Hops (used in home brewing)
  • Tomato leaves & stems (green parts)
  • Broccoli (in large amounts)
  • Raisins and grapes
  • Cigarettes, tobacco, cigars                                                         
  • Onions
  • Chocolate
  • Macadamian Nuts
  • 1
    • 1

      Yeah but most of those are bad for humans too lol
