Nuts

Nuts are a common allergy in humans. This problem can occur in dogs as well; however, it's not the only issue.

Most nuts are high in salt and fat, which can lead to pancreatitis or similar health conditions. Whilst this can be dangerous, a more toxic component in nuts is the Aspergillus mould. It contains the toxin, aflatoxin, which can seriously hurt your dog.

Another problem is the shape and size as they are a massive choking hazard.

Despite this, there are ways to give your dog nuts with minimal risk. Spreads like peanut butter can be a great snack if your dog isn't allergic.
