Like Chocolate, Acai May Be Poisonous To Dogs
You may know that chocolate is poisonous to dogs. But did you know that the acai berry is as well? Chocolate and acai have an alkaloid in common called theobromine. Like caffeine, theobromine is a substance that can effect the nervous system. But while it is safe for humans, dogs metabolize theobromine much more slowly, and consumption can be fatal, particularly in small dogs. While we don’t expect you to have massive amounts of acai berry products sitting around the house during the holidays, please be mindful of its potential effects on dogs.
