Summer brings with it outside picnics, celebrations, and lazy days at the beach. Fruit trees are abundant, and cold drinks kept handy. Be extra diligent when it comes to your dog’s health by keeping clean, fresh water available for him, as well as a high quality feed that meets his active summertime needs. It is also important that you are careful with what your dog does not eat as well.

You should NEVER feed your dog the following foods:

Apples, cherries, peaches, plums and apricots all contain seeds that have a substance that is cyanide based. Different amounts are fatal to dogs.

Avocados are poisonous for dogs. The bark, fruit, pit, and leaves are all very toxic.

Baking soda and baking powder both cause electrolyte imbalances that can can be fatal.

Chocolate contains an element that is fatal to dogs in large doses.

Alcohol can poison your dog; even small amounts of alcohol.
