Japanese bunching onions are called by many names, including scallions, green onions, spring onions, etc. These small onions are used raw in salads, cooked in pastas, stir fries, soups and more. Japanese bunching onions are packed with Vitamins A, C, & K, potassium, manganese, folate, calcium, iron and more.

Can my dog eat Japanese bunching onions? No, as with other onions, these are not good to feed your dog. Can my puppy eat Japanese bunching onions? No, never give you puppy any type of onion. As with other types of onions, green onions contain compounds that can make your puppy or dog very sick. It doesn’t take much for them to develop a serious medical condition that could be avoidable. What would happen if my puppy ate Japanese bunching onions? He would become sick very fast and either develop a serious form of anemia or onion toxicity if he ate a large amount. If you believe your dog or puppy has eaten a large amount of onions (more than one or two small pieces), then it’s a good idea to contact your vet and get an appointment as soon as possible.
