🚫TOXIC CHRISTMAS FOODS FOR DOGS 🚫
🍫 CHOCOLATE 🍫
The most common clinical signs of ingesting chocolate are vomiting, diarrhea, increased thirst, panting or restlessness, excessive urination, and racing heart rate. In severe cases, symptoms can include muscle tremors, seizures, and heart failure.
🦴 COOKED BONES 🦴
Be wary of feeding them cooked turkey, goose and chicken bones as they can easily splinter, causing an obstruction and possibly even piercing your dog’s tummy
🥧 CHRISTMAS CAKE, MINCE PIES & CHRISTMAS PUDDING 🥧
All contain dried fruits such as raisins, currants or sultanas which are toxic to dogs and can cause kidney failure.
🌰 MACADAMIA NUTS 🌰
Even a small amount ingested can lead to vomiting, hyperthermia and muscle weakness
🧀 BLUE CHEESE 🧀 can cause vomiting, high temperatures, diarrhoea and even seizures.
🧄🧅 ONIONS, LEEKS, GARLIC, CHIVES & SHALLOTS 🧅🧄
Can cause anaemia, look out for signs of lethargy, weakness, pale gums, fainting, reddish urine and decreased appetite.
🍾 ALCOHOL 🍾
Can cause lethargy, respiratory depression, and dangerously low body temperature in dogs.
REMEMBER your Christmas dinner involves a large amount of dangerous foods for your dog, either through being toxic, too salty or too fatty, so please be safe when trying to include your dog on Christmas Day.
If you think your dog may have eaten something that they shouldn’t or they have symptoms including sickness and diarrhoea, speak to your vet straight away.
