While the majority of fruits don’t pose threat to pets, some can cause serious problems. Keeping this in mind, we have made a list of fruits that are toxic to your buddy. If you are not aware of such fruits, chances are that you might be feeding your dog those fruits. Let’s find out what you are not supposed to give your dog.
Seeds, Pips, and Stones
Make sure no one in your family members throws an apple core, seeds, and stones when there’s a pet around. Your pet may consider it as a treat. They contain cyanide and can be very dangerous to your dog. Everyone in your home should be aware of it.
Mushrooms
The mushrooms we use in the kitchen are less dangerous. However, wild mushrooms are poisonous and can cause some serious problems. If your dog has accidentally consumed them, don’t delay in taking your dog to the vet before his situation gets severe.
Avocados
Avoid giving any part of avocados to your dog, as it can cause diarrhea, breathing problems, and other health conditions.
Raisins and grapes
Grapes and raisins are common fruits largely consumed by humans. While they have a lot of health benefits for humans, they can cause some serious problems to your pet such as kidney failure or damage.
Unripe Tomatoes
Although ripe tomatoes are a safe bet for dogs, the unripe ones can be harmful. They are rich in tomatine, which can damage to kidneys, nervous system, and digestive tract. If you have tomato plants in your lawn, you should fence them off from your dog.
