Xylitol Sweetner Toxicity

 

Keep products containing sugar substitutes away from your dog.  These products containing xylitol, such as gum, candy, and baked goods, can rapidly cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) in dogs.  If your dog has eaten a product containing xylitol and begins showing signs of weakness, incoordination, depression, or seizures, call your veterinarian immediately.
