The answer is certainly no.
Lemons contain certain compounds like psoralen and aromatic oils that may be harmful to dogs depending on their size and health status. While the citric acid in lemons is not toxic to dogs, psoralen and aromatic oils are. Additionally, these compounds are very dangerous for your dog’s stomach and could result in vomiting, diarrhea, and even the breakdown of red blood cells. Keep a very close eye on your pup if she accidentally ingests lemons.
Signs of toxicity:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Muscle tremors
- Trouble walking
- Liver failure
If you feel like your dog is exhibiting these signs, or if you want further peace of mind, you can consult a licensed virtual vet – available 24/7.
