When planning a landscape (or houseplants) when you have pets consider how what you plant may affect them. Some plants are toxic to pets. I would especially be careful with dogs since they tend to eat almost anything.
Grapes and raisins - poisonous to dogs and cats. Damage the kidneys.
Avocados -poisonous to most species but especially birds. Damages the heart muscle.
Garlic and onions - poisonous to dogs and cats. Damage to red blood cells.
Macadamia nuts - poisonous to dogs. Muscle and nervous system problems.
Chocolate - poisonous to most species but mostly dogs. Nervous system and heart.
Pet Safe Foods - for dogs and cats
Apples
Peas
Green beans
Popcorn - no salt, butter, GMO
Carrots
Sweet Potatoes
Pumpkin
Zucchini
Squash
Lettuce
Blueberries
