While salt itself for your dog is not a no go, it is important to understand that moderation here is the key. If consumed in excessive amounts, it can lead to salt poisoning or water deprivation.

Signs of overindulgence:

• Diarrhea
• Vomiting
• Seizures

To be clear, there are cases where over consumption of salt has lead to death.

Salt is one of those things where it should be avoided as you can. More things contain sodium than you might think. Any type of food could potentially contain sodium, so you are best double checking to keep sodium in check. Again, small amounts, and those amounts that are reasonably contained will be fine.

In any event, you should have some water available for your dog to quench its thirst and keep it hydrated.
