Can dogs eat avocado?
If your dog has already eaten this and you are worried, contact your veterinarian.
Why
Avoid. Contains persin; the pit is also a choking and blockage hazard. Avocados contain persin, a substance that can make dogs sick, and the large pit poses a serious choking or blockage risk. Even small amounts of the fruit, skin, or pit can cause stomach upset or more severe complications.
Watch out for
- the pit or seed
- the skin
- guacamole or sweetened dips
