Vets have issued an urgent warning to dog owners, detailing a list of substances which are poisonous and toxic to our four-legged friends. And alarmingly, many of them are household staples.
The Upper Canada Animal Hospital raised concerns online in a viral video, gaining 75.5 million views in under a month. In which, it features a number of team members being asked: "What is the one thing that is toxic to dogs?"
And while we all know that chocolate is poisonous to our canine counterparts, other shocking answers which sprung up included less-obvious items like avocados, garlic, onions and ibuprofen. The caption of the clip warned: "Be sure to do research before giving your dog new foods, and contact your veterinarian if they get into something they shouldn't have."
