Answer 3

well Im hoping you are wanting to know common things that can harm a dog so that you can make sure you dont keep these things in your pooches reach......yes chocoalte can be bad, antifreeze WILL kill them, garlic is bad grapes are bad poinsetteas(those red christmas plants ) are poisionous to dogs & cats.....okay sorry Im having a brain fart thats all I can come up with...obviously bleach cleaners & stuff of that nature

Answer 4

I think the most important question to ask here is WHY do you want to know this ? Are you planning on killing a dog ??

I dont know about dogs, but if you want to kill mice or rats -- put some instant potatos out for them, the mice will eat it all up and then once in their stomachs, mixes with the liquid in side them, potatos expand -- and then blows up their stomachs....pretty gross, but an inexpensive way to get rid of rodents !

Dont try this on a dog !! ;-)

Answer 5

my dog ate a gingerbread house once (had chocolate and candy) and she turned out fine, but wouldn't recommend it.

I don't know of any everyday things that would poison dogs. Just use common-sense. Dogs eat a lot of things, my new one eats snails.

Answer 6

Your reported. I am so sick of people like you I could puke. You make me sick. Why must the world be so filled with hate against creatures so filled with love? May you suffer a fitting fate for your crimes.

Edit: Glad for the clarification! As you can tell I was rather upset by your question. Choclate is bad for your dog, depending on the type and quantity injested. Below is a list which details how much and of what type choclate is deadly to a dog.

White chocolate: 200 ounces per pound of body weight. It takes 250 pounds of white chocolate to cause signs of poisoning in a 20-pound dog, 125 pounds for a 10-pound dog.
Milk chocolate: 1 ounce per pound of body weight. Approximately one pound of milk chocolate is poisonous to a 20-pound dog; one-half pound for a 10-pound dog. The average chocolate bar contains 2 to 3 ounces of milk chocolate. It would take 2-3 candy bars to poison a 10 pound dog. Semi-sweet chocolate has a similar toxic level.
Sweet cocoa: 0.3 ounces per pound of body weight. One-third of a pound of sweet cocoa is toxic to a 20-pound dog; 1/6 pound for a 10-pound dog.
Baking chocolate: 0.1 ounce per pound body weight. Two one-ounce squares of bakers' chocolate is toxic to a 20-pound dog; one ounce for a 10-pound dog.

Answer 7

Please don't poison you dog or anyone else's, for that matter. If the dog is yours, put an ad in the paper giving it away to someone who will care and love for it, or take it to your local shelter. If it is someone else's dog, just leave it be.

Answer 8

Grapes are poisonous to dogs.

Answer 9

chocolate, onions, oranges, grapes, tomatoes, shrimp

that's all I can think of off the top of my head. but it's best to not feed your dog people food if you honestly care enough to want to know what to avoid feeding it. dogs can't handle people food that well ecspecially small ones due to not being able to digest it properly and b/c they can only get so big and then the fat grows on organs and they slowly smother themselves. not to mention it's a strain on their bodies just to be a certain weight then it'd be causing problems with joints and bones.

Answer 10

Chocolate can do serious harm to the dog but it may not kill it. Don't give it too much people food otherwise it may cause a sign of cancer.

Answer 11
