XYLITOL
***********
Xylitol is the sugar substitute found in many
chewing gums, dietetic cookies, mints etc,
that can be very hazardous to your dog's health.
It has caused a number of dog deaths.
In dogs, the initial response after consumption
causes a significant increase in insulin levels
which can then possibly drop blood sugar dramatically.
Following ingesting Xylitol, dogs usually begin
vomiting, become lethargic and can have difficulty
standing or walking. Some have seizures.
It may possibly cause liver failure and bleeding
disorders and death.
As few as two or three sticks of xylitol gum could
be toxic to a 20-pound dog, the ASPCA (The American
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty) says. (imagine how little
it would take to affect a small yorkie pup)
Try and be aware what goods you have at home that
contain Xylitol.
If your dog ingests any product that
contains Xylitol, be sure to take them to your Vet
Grapes and raisans are also dangerous for your yorkie. they
can couse server liver damage !!!
Chocolate is also dangerous. please don't feed it to any dog
