Dangerous Gardens for Dogs

As many of us have planted summer vegetable gardens and are starting to enjoy the fruits of our labor, we need to be aware that many of these fruits and plants are harmful to our dogs. For instance, apples, apricots, peaches, wild cherries, plums, balsam pears, prunes and other similar fruit can cause diarrhea and vomiting. This includes the stems, seeds and leaves. The seeds of most fruits have cyanide in them that is poisonous to dogs as well as humans. Avocados, broccoli, almonds and macadamia nuts are toxic to dogs as well. Many garden plants such as corn plants, onions, grapes and tomato plants can also be very dangerous to your four-legged friend. These fruits and plants can make your dog very ill. As we enjoy our gardens, we need to make sure we have proper barriers to keep our dogs out. This will help to prevent fatal consequences. For more information
