19. Potatoes are toxic to some dogs.
Similar to tomatoes, potatoes have solanine in their raw state. It is a compound that can be toxic to some dogs. The highest amount of solanine is concentrated in the leaves and stems of potatoes. This poses the most significant poisoning risk for your dog.
According to experts, owners should bake or boil potatoes before giving them to dogs. Feeding your dog too many carbohydrates can lead to many health problems, including obesity. If this condition persists, it can shorten the dog’s life.
