Thanks Cher!

This has always made me wonder...used to feed my English Springer Avo-Derm, kibble from Avocados, she loved avocados and since I had no clue that this was toxic would give her a bite everytime I made a salad.

Now years later I am so up-to-date on what is TOXIC to dogs and have two files of information.

Excess is the main problem, but just to be careful, I now feed my little rescue Solid Gold Holistic food.

Thanks for this, first time I have seen an article on this and was so happy...
