Can dogs eat loquats? Do not be careless!
Can dogs eat loquats? Dogs cannot eat loquat because loquat contains more fructose, which will cause burden and discomfort to the dog's digestive system.
The flesh, core and peel of loquat contain an alkaloid. If you feed too much loquat, it will cause the alkaloid in the dog's body to exceed the standard, and the dog will experience difficulty breathing, vomiting or even shock, so there is no need to give the dog loquat. There are many fruits that dogs can eat, such as apples, pears, etc. Just eat fruits that are gentle and harmless to the body.
Although loquat is rich in vitamins, trace elements, and fructose, it is not easy to digest and will cause gastrointestinal discomfort in the dog. In addition, the pit of loquat contains a small amount of cyanide, which may cause poisoning if the dog swallows too much.
Not only is it not recommended for dogs to eat loquat, but also for dogs to drink cough-relieving drugs such as loquat, which are not recommended for dogs to drink. Although this medicine is a mild Chinese patent medicine, the sugar content in it is excessive for dogs and may lead to gastroenteritis. In addition, some dogs may have allergic reactions to loquats, so it is not recommended to feed loquats to dogs.
