+In fact, there’s a lot of people food your dog should never eat. 
+And, it’s not just because of weight. 
+Some foods are downright dangerous for dogs -- and some of these common foods may surprise you.

+It can cause your dog's blood sugar to drop and can also cause liver failure. 
+Early symptoms include vomiting, lethargy, and coordination problems. Eventually, your dog may have seizures. Liver failure can happen within just a few days.
+If you grow avocados at home, keep your dog away from the plants. Persin is in the leaves, seed, and bark, as well as the fruit. 
+Also, the avocado seed can become stuck in the intestines or stomach, and obstruction could be fatal.
+Alcohol has the same effect on a dog’s liver and brain that it has on people. Just a little beer, liquor, wine, or food with alcohol can be bad. It can cause vomiting, diarrhea, coordination problems, breathing problems, coma, even death. And the smaller your dog, the worse it can be.
+Keep onions and garlic -- powdered, raw, cooked, or dehydrated -- away from your dog. They can kill their red blood cells, causing anemia. That's even the onion powder in some baby food. Eating a lot just once can cause poisoning. Look for signs like weakness, vomiting, and breathing problems.
