Grapes and raisins are toxic too. Dark green veges can cause bad gas. Chocolate is as addictive to dogs as herion is to humans, so the big dose can kill, we know that, but the addictive thing I found out the hard way. Past dog, friend could not resist, took 2 weeks to clean him out, he had shakes and other signs of withdrawl. He lived after that for some time. he died for other reasons at 11 1/2. That's all I can tell you, but I also tell all my training clients this. It matters.

There are certainly things one should never feed a dog. Does anyone know what is not good to feed them, what is dangerous or deadly to feed them. Example: chocolate. What foods should be avoided (fruits or vegetables that they should never have)? Thanks, Barbara ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
