also for garlics and onions, this is repeated exposure to the buld. We had a corgi that coud eat garlic by the clove and whilst you would not want him under the bed after, it did him no harm.
feed your dogs a balanced and nutritional diet (I recommend Chudleys whole heartedly, the coat it produces is exemplary), the odd clove or onion is nothing to be worried about except when they breathe on you.
The worst poison is chocolate! Keep away from that, but dont worry, Bigglrs regularly eats onions, garlic, etc in our leftovers, does him no harm, still has the traction power of a groundburst bomb, healthy as heck!
Just do not feed dangerous foods as a staple diet! Makes sense, you would not live on big macs, well some might, but then you would expect to pay the consequences, same for your dog!

At the vet the other day while taking my doggie for a check up I was sat beside a man who owned 2 Lhaso Apso's. One had stolen and eaten a full box of raisins (including the cardboard). The poor guy had to pay hundreds to have her stomach pumped! Apparently it goes for their kidneys!

god I knew some of these, like the chocolate thing, but some really surprised me.
My old boy ate grapes, we also have a couple of apple trees and he used to eat loads and loads of apples, core and all the more fermented the better. Is it that some dogs react to things and some don't?

A warning to those that are considering growing Tomatoes this year.
Tomato plants (part of the Belladonna family) contain Atropine, its extremely dangerous to children and dogs in particular if ingested, it can cause dilated pupils, tremors, and heart arrhythmias.
The highest concentration of atropine is found in the leaves and stems of tomato plants, with less in unripe (green) tomatoes, and even less in ripe (red) tomatoes.
If anyone is thinking of growing their own Tomatoes, then consider the hanging basket variety

I knew most of these as I researched before we got Buddy.
my family think I've been really fussy and that he 'deserves a treat' from time to time.
But I'm careful not to give him anything of these and the 'Leave it' command we learned at Pawfect Start comes in extremely useful when you drop a grape on the floor and his little brow starts to furrow ready to pounce.
After all, I don't want to risk losing my dog just for the sake of giving him a 'treat'!

I never realised that tea was a problem for dogs. A lot of my relatives and friends with dogs have recommended I let Jake have a mug of tea a day as it keeps their coats shiney... is this just a myth then? Lol.
