Can dogs eat nutmeg?

No — don't give this

In quantity it causes disorientation and tremors. A dusting on something isn't usually a crisis, but don't offer it.

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.
