No. It is not recommended to feeding acorns to dogs. Acorns can cause severe toxicity in our canine pals. Symptoms include vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and even liver and kidney failure.

So, please keep acorns out of your dog’s reach. If your pet has eaten an acorn, you might want to call your vet right away. Your vet will decide the treatment based on your dog’s symptoms and how many acorns your dog has eaten.

Please remember that all parts of the acorn and oak trees are toxic to dogs – including leaves, bark, etc. if you have oak trees in your yard, you might want to discourage your dog from sniffing its leaves and even from playing with acorns. 

If possible, it may be best to have the trees removed. You can also teach your dog the Drop It command so you can call it back when it plays with or sniffs an acorn.

To ensure your pet will live a long and healthy life, it is always a good idea to invest in pet health insurance. Preparing for the unexpected guarantees money is never an issue in keeping you pup healthy.
