Cooked Bones

• Cooked bones can splinter and cause blockages or lacerations in a dog’s digestive system. Stick to giving your dog raw bones or specially made dental chews. Cooked bones can cause serious injuries to a dog’s mouth, throat, and intestines, and should be avoided. If you suspect your dog has consumed cooked bones, it’s important to contact your veterinarian immediately.

Nuts

• Some nuts like almonds, macadamia and walnuts can cause vomiting, diarrhea, tremors and hyperthermia in dogs. These nuts contain high levels of oils and fats, which can be difficult for a dog’s digestive system to process. They also contain toxins that can be harmful to dogs. If you suspect your dog has consumed nuts, it’s important to contact your veterinarian immediately.
