Something to Consider:
Our dogs are very individual, depending on the breed, they differ in size and weight. Toxic substances are usually a lot more dangerous for small or young dogs. It is better to ask a veterinarian for advice before a situation becomes life-threatening. Dogs can also be allergic or have intolerance and thus react to foods or substances that are not a problem for other dogs. This list is kept very general and is aimed exclusively at the general knowledge about tolerances in dogs at the present time. So we cannot guarantee the health of your dog, because every dog is different.
