My friend's Doberman ate all the chocolate snowmen off their Christmas tree one year and spent boxing day in ER having its stomach pumped. Cost over £500. And our vet once told my dad to avoid feeding raw onions to our dog because he'd seen many cases of poisoning in Australian where he trained, from people feeding dogs these foods at barbecues. Paracetamol is also dangerous for dogs, deadly for cats. I've forgotten the reason why - something to do with metabolic pathways I think. Ibuprofen and aspirin are safer.
