You probably can’t resist giving your beloved four-legged friend a bite of your meal when he looks at you with those adorable eyes. But sometimes you actually should because not all human foods are good for your dog’s health. Continue reading to find out five human foods your dog shouldn’t eat.

Anything With Caffeine

Caffeine has various benefits for humans, but if consumed by dogs, it can lead to various complications, including vomiting, diarrhea, and heart issues. From coffee and sodas to chocolate, avoid giving your dog anything that has caffeine in it.

Onions

Onions can cause digestive problems for dogs. Avoid giving them onions in any form or shape, and avoid even food seasoned with onion salt or onion flavoring.

Milk

Dogs don’t have enzymes in their body to properly digest any other kind of milk except the one that comes from their mother when they are pups. If they consume it, it will make them sick.

Avocado
