Years ago a friend's citrus ranch was next to an avocado ranch and they had 
some of my dogs. The dogs (and mine when I visited) would always eat avocados 
when available and their dogs all lived to be old and active.

That's been my reason for letting the dogs have them, too...coats.  Frankly,
I don't believe avocados are poisonous, either, but I thought I'd pass
it on anyway.  My dogs would SHUN me if I didn't share the avocados!!!

    They contain a toxic component called persin, which can damage heart,
    lung and other tissue in many animals. This fruit is very toxic to
    dogs, cats and most animals.
  Del Prado German Shepherds (Bob & Lil Fuller) had about an acre of
Avacado Trees  Their dogs ate the ones that fell off the trees and they loved
them, they had gorgeous coats....but the biggest problem was keeping them from
getting too fat!  LOL.
