In addition to chocolate and other human foods toxic to dogs, it’s important to know many common brands of chewing gum and mints are sweetened with xylitol, which is highly toxic to dogs even in small amounts.
Some common types of gum have enough xylitol in one piece to be potentially fatal to a dog. Remember to keep any food containing xylitol out of your dog’s reach! If you suspect your dog has ingested any xylitol at all. Please contact your veterinarian immediately.
