Common Foods Dogs Can Not Eat.

So do you ever stop and wonder, "Wow there are a lot of foods us humans eat that are beloved animals can't." Well if you don't, maybe you should, because there is a lot of them! Here are just a few that many people don't know about.

Avocados!
Avocados contain Persin, it is an oil-soluble compound structurally similar to a fatty acid, and it leaches into the body of the fruit from the pits. It is harmless to us but in large amounts can be toxic to our pups. 

Alcohol!
The effect that alcohol has on us has the safe effect but worse for dogs. Just a sip of it can cause vomiting, diarrhea, problems with coordination, difficulty breathing, coma and even death. Just like with humans, the smaller the animal the worse the effects. You may think its funny to get your dog drunk and watch them stumble around, but remember your causing them more pain then you can imagine!

Caffeine!
Found in coffee, tea, pop, weight loss pills and many more things, Caffeine can be lethal in large amounts. In small amounts it can cause rapid breathing, heart palpitations, restlessness, muscle tremors, bleeding, diarrhea and vomiting. Like with alcohol, the smaller the dog the worse the effects can be.

Grapes and Raisins!
Its unclear why, but grapes and raisins have shown to cause kidney failure. Repeated vomiting is an early sign and within a day a dog can become very depressed and lethargic.

Onions and Garlic!
In any form, garlic and onions can destroy a dog's red blood cells and make them anemia. Now small doses of garlic actually helps strengthen a dogs immune system, but you have to be very careful as to how much you give to your pet. On the other hand onions are very toxic even in small doses. Some systems of garlic and onion poisoning are little interest of food, dullness, weakness, and vomiting.

Chocolate!
Now many people think chocolate is bad for dogs, and yes it is not the best of them but it is also not going to kill them. Milk chocolate and white chocolate is okay for dogs to eat. But I am not recommending that you feed it to your beloved furry friend. Dark chocolate, unsweetened baking chocolate, and chocolate mulch on the had can be fatal to dogs, even in very small amounts.
