About This Rescue

Responding to an unanswered need, several Pflugerville Animal Shelter Volunteers established a non-profit organization, Pflugerville Pets Alive (PPA), to provide a way for the community to make a difference in the lives of animals. PPA focuses on finding homes for all animals in the community, creating awareness, and to support, educate and promote animal welfare issues in Pflugerville. Contact this shelter on how you can help.

Many people are unaware that some of the foods that we eat on regular basis can be deadly to your dog. The following is a list of potential effects they may have on your pet. Keep in mind after you read this pay special attention to your children who will inadvertently feed your dog these life threatening items. Chocolate: A piece of chocolate can cause seizures, coma and death. Even a small piece of chocolate is dangerous.

Caffeine: Anything containing caffeine can have a similar effect and be as dangerous as chocolate, and that includes coffee grounds, tea, and tea bags. Grapes and raisins: can cause kidney failure and even a single serving of raisins can kill your dog.

Excessive salt: intake can also cause kidney problems.

Onions: can cause anemia by destroying red blood cells while tomatoes can cause tremors and heart arrhythmias.

Tomato plants: are particularly toxic to dogs.

Avocados: are also highly toxic and can cause breathing difficulty and fluid accumulation around the abdomen chest and heart.

Bones: When giving your dog bones ensure that they are raw, as cooked bones can splinter and damage their internal organs. Especially Poultry bone.

Excessive fat: can cause pancreatitis, so it is not wise to feed your dog a diet of fatty foods. Fried foods: also fall into this category and are not good to retain maximum health in your dog.

Certain nuts: such as Macadamia nuts and walnuts can cause weakness and muscle tremors.

Peanut butter: however is generally okay provided you use the salt and sugar free peanut butter as sugar can encourage cancer growth.

The core and pits: of fruits such as Apple's cherries and peaches contain cyanide, which is really poisonous to dogs and can kill them within 24-hours without warning.

If in doubt, always refrain from feeding your dog foods that we are eating assuming that they will be okay. The foods we eat can kill your Dog. If you have any additional concerns please speak with your veterinarian.
