Chocolate can be toxic for dogs, even in quite small amounts. Dark chocolate, cooking chocolate and cocoa powder usually contains more theobromine than milk chocolate, making it more dangerous for dogs. But even the amount of sugar and fat in chocolate can make your dog ill, so it's best to be cautious and prevent them from finding it in your home. Grapes and raisins can put dogs at risk of kidney failure – even a small amount can make your dog seriously ill. Onions, garlic, chives and leek contain a toxin that is very dangerous for dogs. Sugar-free products such as chewing gum, cakes and sweets which contain the sweetener xylitol, can cause a life-threatening fall in blood sugar levels and collapse, which may result in death. Avocado contains a toxin that is poisonous to dogs. Just a small amount of macadamia nuts can be toxic for dogs. When dogs eat uncooked bread dough, it can begin to rise in their stomach and cause discomfort.
