Dog Poisonous Foods can be deadly for your doggies or pets.
Let me just advice you what are the Most Harmful Foods for your Pet.
We have to be very careful because some foods and snacks that are considered good for people can be very HARMFUL foods for your dog: In this case, I am talking about food that is very toxic for our lovely poodle dogs and I ask myself, do we really know about them?
I have a list that I consider the most common poisonous food that can be very dangerous to almost all the animals and pets.
However, I also suggest to you that if you intend to provide your doggy with food not specifically intended for them,you should discuss it with your veterinarian or pet nutritionist.I am not a veterinarian, but I am just a concerned dog loving person who has done a little research to put together my knowledge and some of my experiences with my own dogs.
I will start with one of the most well known harmful and Dog Poisonous Foods for your doggie and it is “ CHOCOLATE”. I panic when my poodle dog is among children.
It is very important to talk to your children about the danger and consequences if your doggy gets a chocolate in his mouth.
1. – Chocolate - You will find a chemical in chocolate, Theo bromine, that can cause epileptic seizures in dogs. It can also increase heart rate, over stimulation of the central nervous system and constriction of arteries.
You have to be most careful with Baked Chocolate; this one has the highest amount of Theo bromine.
Watch for these poisonous dog symptoms:
They are vomiting, diarrhea and hyperactive behavior or cardiac failure or seizures. If you notice one of them get to the veterinarian or go to an emergency animal hospital IMMEDIATELY.
In case you suspect that your dog has eaten some chocolate and you see him very agitated, try to put in his water some Rescue Remedy, available at most health food stores and check that he is drinking a lot of water in order to flush the system.

Act Immediately
2. – Onions - Onion Powder and Onions can cause anemia and breathing difficulties, because this type of poisonous foods can damage the dog’s red blood cells.
NEVER, EVER give your dog onions because it contains a chemical which causes dog blood cells to swell and burst!
Too much & becomes anemic..." more and its deadly."
Please be Aware: Baby Food can contain onion powder, which can be toxic to dogs.
3. - Avocados- They carry a very toxic component called Persin. This can damage heart, lung and another tissue in dogs. In addition, we have to understand that Avocados are high in fat that brings to vomiting and stomach upset, and if the Persin get stuck in the intestinal tract, it can cause a severe blockage that will require surgery.
4. -Fatty Foods - I mean Chicken Fat and Meat Fat or just Fatty Foods, can lead to digestive disorders, gastrointestinal upset and pancreas inflammation.
Symptoms like diarrhea, vomiting. Abdomen inflammation is sometimes very dangerous and can even result in dead.
TIP:
!!!! If you are going to share your chicken with your doggy, please don’t give him the skin!
!!!! NEVER EVER feed cooked bones of any description
5. –Nuts - Some nuts are more dangerous that others. Macadamia nuts contain an unknown toxin, which can be poisonous food and affect the digestive and nervous system and muscle.
6. - Salt in your Pet’s Food - Never put or add salt to your dog’s food, this can cause electrolyte imbalances in the natural potassium, sodium, chloride phosphorous and calcium, that make up the body.

8. - Raw Eggs - Contain an enzyme called avidin, which decreases the absorption of biotin9B vitamin 0. This can lead to skin and hair coat problems. Raw eggs may also contain Salmonella.
