Food safety

Can dogs eat macadamia nuts?

No — don't give this

Cause weakness, wobbliness, tremors and vomiting, often within twelve hours.

If your dog has already eaten it

Call your vet.

Being honest about this

Dogs differ, and amount matters — a crumb of something rich is not the same as half a packet. Treats of any kind should stay under a tenth of what your dog eats in a day. If you're unsure, your vet would far rather take the call.
