Which foods can cause life-threatening danger to dogs if eaten?
Believe all pet owners want to raise their dogs to be great. They are very attentive to their dogs, even feeding them food meant for humans. Here, the editor wants to remind everyone that dogs’ digestive systems are different from ours. Foods beneficial to humans may be deadly poisons to dogs. So we need to figure out which foods dogs can eat and which they cannot. Let’s take a look together with the editor.
1. Chocolate
Chocolate must never be fed to dogs because it contains too many calories. Generally, dogs cannot handle such high-calorie intake, which can cause physical damage and trigger complications. Dogs’ bodies are different from humans, so try not to feed dogs random things.
2. Onions
For humans, onions are very beneficial, promoting good health and benefiting the eyes. However, for dogs, they are indeed poison. Onions damage the function of dogs’ red blood cells, causing serious illnesses, and can even lead to bloody urine.
3. Grapes
Everyone loves fruit, especially in its season when most people buy seasonal fruit to eat. Sometimes, they even share it with their dogs. Most fruits are fine, but some can greatly affect dogs.
For example, grapes can cause food poisoning in dogs, manifested by depression, poor mental state, vomiting, and diarrhea. Overall, it causes great discomfort.
4. Bones
This may raise doubts: dogs like to eat bones, so why can’t they be fed bones? Because dogs’ teeth cannot fully chew bones, bone splinters easily injure dogs’ mouths and throats.
5. Seafood
Dogs cannot eat seafood. Eating too much can cause allergic reactions and other symptoms. This needs attention. Although some seafood is safe for dogs, the amount is very limited. So, the editor advises pet owners not to take this risk and to feed dogs other foods.
Therefore, some things must never be fed to dogs, as feeding them may harm these pets. Besides the five foods mentioned above, there are other foods dogs should not eat. Pet owners must be very careful and attentive during raising.
