Antifreeze products containing ethylene glycol are highly toxic They can produce life-threatening kidney damage, even in small amounts.

Many windshield washer products contain methanol, which if ingested can cause:

drooling

drunkenness and

severe central nervous system depression.

While methanol can cause blindness in humans, it does not appear to have this effect in cats and dogs.

CHAINING OUTSIDE UNATTENDED

A dog should never be chained outside unattended. Most dogs suffer personality quirks when tied and many can become downright aggressive. Dogs are better off in fenced areas, where they can see the barrier between them and the world, where they can feel somewhat safe from frolicking children.

Chocolate, including baking chocolate

Chocolate contains caffeine-like substances, and in some forms, a high amount of fat as well. Depending on the amount ingested, chocolate can potentially cause

vomiting

increased thirst and urination,

diarrhea,

hyperactivity,

elevated heart rate

and seizures

Clinical effects can be seen with the ingestion of as little as 1/4 ounce of baking chocolate by a 10-pound dog.
