Sure, onions contain a substance that is dangerous for dogs. Even given in very little quantities is not advisable regardless of whether your dog likes it or not. Just don’t make it a habit of adding it to their meals as garnishing.
I’ve always kinda known onions might be harmful for a dog but Vidalia as well? I’m an onion junkie and I feel sorry for new my dog, she won’t be able to taste majority of my meals.
Though Vidalia onions are a good source of vitamin C and chromium, they are really not recommended for dogs. Just like every other dog, it can be toxic and cause your dog discomfort. There are other healthy alternatives to onion in your dog’s food if you want to add flavoring to it.
I told a friend that anything that is onions is harmful to dogs and she was really arguing with me about it. The day she cooked a homemade food for her dog and adding very little onions to taste, she called me from the hospital to say I was right. Some pet parents just do not know how to get things right with their dogs. I wonder if they think they can try experimenting with their dog’s health just for the fun of it.
No, no. Vidalia onions, and all onions, are not safe for any dog. Not even a slice in their food. Onions generally contain compounds that are toxic to dogs and can cause anemia or onion poisoning.
