Cereal and breakfast
Cereal is the snack that ends up on the floor around kids. The cereals I’ve checked don’t list onion, garlic, chocolate or xylitol, so the story is mostly sugar, plus milk if there’s a bowl involved. ASPCA says pets don’t have much lactase, so milk can cause diarrhea or digestive upset.Pop-Tarts are in here too. Chocolate flavors would be a different page with a different label.If your dog already ate something that worries you, call your vet, ASPCA Poison Control at (888) 426-4435, or Pet Poison Helpline at (855) 764-7661.
No red-flag ingredient on the label (still not dog food)
- Can Dogs Eat Cheerios? What the Label SaysOats, corn starch, sugar and salt. Nothing on the label is from ASPCA's list.
