Onions and garlic contain compounds that can damage dogs’ red blood cells, leading to anemia. This can happen if a dog eats large amounts of raw onions or garlic, or even small amounts of onion or garlic powder. Even small amounts can cause harm, and the symptoms of onion and garlic poisoning can take several days to appear. Symptoms to look out for include vomiting, diarrhea, and weakness. If you suspect your dog has consumed onions or garlic, it’s important to contact your veterinarian immediately.
Grapes and Raisins
Grapes and raisins can cause kidney failure in dogs. Even a small amount can be toxic and lead to vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. The symptoms can be seen within 12 to 24 hours after ingestion and can include vomiting, diarrhea, and dehydration. In severe cases, it can lead to kidney failure, which can be fatal. If you suspect your dog has consumed grapes or raisins, it’s important to contact your veterinarian immediately.
