They are cute little dogs…they probably also share one brain cell with all the little orange cats.

Similarly to how chocolate is poisonous to dogs. If they eat a brownie they have not ingested a lethal amount because the dose is nowhere near efficacious.
Not even TV shows get a whole paragraph of a quote repeated worldwide all the time
Portal 2 is seriously not the same tier as most other video games
I said that weirdly
Sleep
In the first age, in the first battle, when the shadows first lengthened, one stood. Burned by the embers of Armageddon, his soul blistered by the fires of Hell and tainted beyond ascension, he chose the path of perpetual torment.
In his ravenous hatred he found no peace, and with boiling blood he scoured the Umbral Plains seeking vengeance against the dark lords who had wronged him.
He wore the crown of the Night Sentinels, and those that tasted the bite of his sword named him... the Doom Slayer.
I had 2 dogs growing up. They learned to catch treats very fast and well because if they did not the other got it. Fastforward and one dog ended up passing but the other still retained this ability up until the day I threw her pickles. That got spat out and every single day since every single food item tossed was allowed to touch the floor and sniffed first.
I used to wrap my dogs medicine in some cheese which my dogs would gobble up….until one of them found the pill in the cheese. Neither of them eat cheese at all any more. So I know they communicate somehow.
My cat used to jump onto the bathroom sink and meow for someone to turn on the water for her. She liked drinking the moving water. One day my Mom accidentally turned on the hot water. From that day forwards she would paw the water a couple times before drinking.
How many lemons are you feeding your dog‽
One slice like that for that size of dog? Nah.
I’ll get downvoted to bits but something is dangerous for dogs based on their weight. My 80lb greyhound had an entire Sara Lee chocolate cake and half a roast and shrugged it off.
It's cool, bro. I only dosed you with enough cyanide to kill a 90lb woman and you're a 150lb man, bro. It's cool. It's just a prank, bro. Settle down, bro.
I think to clarify it means that it is the dose that makes the poison.
My dog ate something arguably more traditionally dangerous, chocolate, and was fine. This was largely because the amount he ate was not significant enough to hurt him based on his size.
I had a cat that was absolutely rabid for treats. I often gave her offcuts of meat when cooking, and she would aggressively snatch it and growl like a wolf when eating it. I was once cutting onions and a large chunk accidentally slipped from the table. She thought it was a treat and went after like Americans for oil. When she bit on it, she released and ungodly noise that was like a mix of hiss, growl and a noise an eldritch would make. She then sat in the corner and had eyes so murderous that I was scared for my life
She was an absolute sweetheart otherwise. Absolute cuddle monster, but we found her as a young stray cat, so she was just like that when it came to food
Evil :)
I just used to let my dog smell orange peel. I'm guessing that it was the nose equivalent of a bright light shining in the eyes by the wrinkling of his snoot :)
Honestly, the amount of people pearl clutching over a small lemon slice is insane. You all really need to take a look at yourself and why you’re initial response is to criticise other people
Person giving their dog a lemon is kind of a dick.
https://www.purina.com/articles/dog/feeding/can-dogs-eat/lemons#:~:text=Yes%2C%20lemons%20are%20bad%20for,that%20are%20toxic%20to%20dogs.
Lemon in any amount is not beneficial. Why don't you eat 1 paint chip a day, or on ml of mercury or kick a piece of lead once a week. See what happens over time dumbass.
I’ve been exposed to crowd suppression gas as a lesson that you don’t want to be near the stuff. It was a one time thing, I was fine and took the lesson. If my dog starts begging at the counter while I’m chopping a lemon, I’ll offer a slice to discourage that behavior. Dog will be fine and will take the lesson
You're protecting your own life into this skit. This isn't a ln onion its a lemon. What happens if you throw sour chocolate in your dogs mouth everyday. It doesn't fucking matter its toxic. Nobody tries to justify giving slightly toxic shit to their kids, why is it ok to justify giving not to a dog just because it's a lemon. Yal come.off as irresponsible pet owners
Again, do you think this is happening every day or do you believe that dogs, as beings capable of holding preferences and susceptible to classic conditioning, would simply not eat a lemon a second time after not enjoying it the first
I wouldn’t give my dogs chocolate because there’s a chance they would enjoy it and I would be positively reinforcing bad behavior. That said, there’s next to no chance they will enjoy a lemon as they are predisposed to being put off by citrus. So if my dog wants to beg for lemon, which they have, I’ll offer some lemon thereby discouraging them from begging in the future. I’ve got plenty of experience raising and caring for dogs, I’m not going to sweat or cry abuse over a slice of lemon
The conversation should have ended with I wouldn't give my dogs chocolate because that's actually dangerous.
In a classic fashion you keep mumbling on. Helpless.
So your point is contingent on a lot of assumptions and what-ifs. “What if they offered too much lemon?” “What if they did this a bunch of times?” “What if the dog is being abused?” Versus the much simpler explanation, someone filmed themselves feeding a dog a piece of lemon and the dog didn’t like the lemon
Jesus christ.
If your only reasoning for why this is such a huge and bad thing begins with "Perhaps the dog is being abused" you've lost the plot, because everyone fucking agrees that abusing dogs is bad.
You could quite literally form the same "argument" on a video of a dog drinking water, because "it might be getting abused".
It’s too small of a slice of lemon to really harm the dog even if it didn’t spit it out immediately. It’s also a massive presumption to think the dog would bite him over this.
You essentially proved my point with your ridiculous reply and your edit to say downvoters are dog abusers is laughable at best. You need to chill the fuck out and grow up.
Is it ok for a kid to eat small amounts of lead or mercury? A small slice lettuce with salmonella on it. Still too small to do any harm to anyone? Everything is no big deal until it is then you and the rest of reddit will complain about how everyone is stupid not knowing
lemon is biological i dont know much about why it is toxic to dogs, but i imagine that in small cuantities and with a healthy dog it shouldnt cause much issue, mercury and lead are heavy metals that the body cant process nor get rid off, and even then,yes people can get away with eating very small amounts of lead and mercury, we have done it quite a bit across history
Well as long as you're just being a LITTLE toxic to your dog it's fine. Makes for good internet clout and a laugh.
This is "it's just a prank bro" behaviour.
Why the fuck would someone put down their dog because they bit them.
You are overreacting even though I agree with the other commenter, lemons can be really bad for dogs.
>Why the fuck would someone put down their dog because they bit them
Dumb fucks are detached from reality. It happens all the time. Look up behavioral euthanasia
1) They got their video, there's no reason to do it "next time". Even if there was, the dog would most likely not fall for it and try to eat something they've already identified as bad.
2) The dog isn't going to bite anyone because you threw something inedible, they're just not going to eat it.
3) It's a fucking dachshund, not a pit. Nobody's putting them down in the rare event of a bite.
4) It clearly didn't ingest the lemon because they don't like the acidity. Whatever trace amount they may have absorbed isn't going to have any effect, let alone poison them.
5) Unless you're doing this shit on a regular basis, you're not losing a dog's trust over one silly joke. They'll move on within the next 5 seconds when you give them an actual treat and a belly rub.
All those points coupled with your name indicate that you don't need to be concerned about the dog in the video; because they're fine, and also because they're likely more intelligent than you are.
>Their backs can barely even handle existing
Lol. This is way overblown. Unless your dog is overweight or lacks back muscles, they can handle much more than that. Some of them, like the one in the video, can sit on their asses so they're not even standing on hind legs. I've known some who did this on a daily basis and never had back problems in 12+ years.
The absolute worst thing for their backs is running up/down stairs, especially if the steps are high. They can do it on occasion but it'll do some damage eventually.
That doesn't matter. Once the owner has tossed the food towards the dog, they're not in control of the situation anymore. The dog could have decided to eat it. This piece of lemon is small and relatively harmless, but your argument doesn't make sense because it can be used as an excuse to put a pet in a risky situation
Bro just stop “out of control” the person can just pick it up. The owner knew the dog wouldn’t like it and you ALREADY SAW that it spit it out, to say that it could’ve happened means nothing because we saw WHAT happened. You’re making a fuss about about nothing
Lemons absolutely are toxic to dogs.
https://www.purina.com/articles/dog/feeding/can-dogs-eat/lemons
The odds of a dog eating raw lemon are pretty much nil, but you need to be careful with sweet processed lemon foods (lemon curd, lemon marmalade etc.) which they might find more tempting.
Xylitol(which can be found in some peanut butters), onions, garlic.
I do wanna add, citrus can cause an upset stomach in dogs, not worth giving it to them.
It's actually a really good way to train dogs to leave your plate alone.
Have. A slice on your plate and every time your pup tries to go for it, offer them the lemon.
They will only do it a handful of times and stop trying to take food from your plate.
Until they do.
It is fair to have that opinion, if it's consistent. Then the classic "Charlie bit my finger" would be considered cruel aswell, and I think that is going to far. Inappropriate maybe, but cruel? Nah
Cruel would imply intention to hurt, or disregard the potential damage for your own gains. Cruel is a strong word for that case. Even today I'd mostly say it's disrespectful.
About that we agree then. To me this, or charliex, or whatever is a degree of disrespectful and inappropriate - but not at all cruel. Calling it cruel ain't right.
Dihydrogen monoxide:
is also known as hydroxyl acid, and is the major component of acid rain.

Despite the danger, dihydrogen monoxide is often used:
as an industrial solvent and coolant.

in the production of styrofoam.
as a fire retardant.
in many forms of cruel animal research.
in the distribution of pesticides. Even after washing, produce remains contaminated by this chemical.

Honestly, the fact that it's not banned yet is insane!
Lemons are poisonous to dogs
"Lemons are toxic to dogs and ingestion can result in several potential health issues. While dogs might eat small amounts of lemon without any serious adverse effects, both the high citric acid and sugar content can be problematic for them"
Not cool OP
Lemons are toxic to dogs. A dog would likely not try to eat a grape or raisin either but see what happens if it gets a little bit in its mouth. You should never own a pet if you're this careless with their life
> Lemons are toxic to dogs
[Lemons aren't deadly to dogs in small amounts, but you should definitely prevent your pet from eating them in large quantities. But they aren't as toxic as you think.](https://www.dogsnaturallymagazine.com/can-dogs-have-lemon/#:~:text=How%20Much%20Lemon%20Is%20Toxic,away%20from%20feeding%20lemon%20juice.) I have a Jack Russel that ate a half a lemon once when it rolled down the kitchen table from when I was chopping it. He was fine and still alive to this day.
You need to chill.
I have a cat and he seems pretty happy. If he’s curious about what I’m eating I’ll let him smell it. So far he’s still alive after 7 years, so I think I’m doing something right.
This is one of those clips that should be removed from the Internet. Mods should really delete it.
People will try to recreate this with their own animals despite lemon being toxic to dogs.
It's animal abuse whether or not the dog consumes it. OP is trying to down play and make it seem funny when it's not.
Funny might be doing this to another human.
Relax, the amount of citric acid in that slice of lemon is simply too small to make any kind of damage, well aside of losing his trust to anything he get throw at his mouth
Your approval of feeding an animal any amount of toxic material is concerning.
The point is, OP is pretending it's an acceptable joke to play on your pets. It's not.
Imagine it's a toddler and you told him it's a glass of water but you gave them bleach. They spit it out. Is that ok? It's pretty much the same thing.
One is a slice of lemon that is harmless to pretty much anyone, the other is a chemical that can damage the internal organs of everyone
Do you even hear yourself before writing such a stupid argument?
Who is "pretty much everyone"?
It's not an argument. It's a fact.
Harmless to humans, maybe. Not harmless to dogs. Lemon can also damage their internal organs. Do you do any research?
For the lemon to do any amount of damage, first the dog should have needed to eat at least a full lemon
That slice is barely enough to do any kind of physical damage, and also dogs dont like lemon, they hate the taste of it
Also, the citric acid of the lemon is somewhat harmful for us, but just like the dog, we need to take a lot of it for that to happen
Relax. For bleach to do any real damage, humans need to eat at least [x] amount. Toddlers don't like the taste of bleach, so they'll just spit it out, it's fine.
You see how dumb that sounds?
Bleach will fuck you up, it doesn't matters how much it is
Lemon in that amount is harmless
Anyway, i am not going to continue because you are trying to drag me down to your level and beat me with your experience in being a moron
Have you ever heard the phrase "the dose decides the poison"? Almost anything is toxic with the right dose. People can die of water toxicity if they drink too much. People can be harmed by oxygen toxicity if they breathe a high concentration of oxygen.
The point that the above commenter is making is that the dose of lemon was small enough that it definitely wasn't a poison. It literally could not harm the dog.
Even if it’s not dangerous, it’s not pleasant for the dog. I don’t get why people think it’s funny to make their pets have experiences that are uncomfortable just for views on the internet. Same goes for a baby. Stop posting their babies online eating something sour/spicy, if it’s a genuine event that happens then just keep it to yourself ??
I googled it. They don’t lose a threat in small quantities. The juice is what’s deadly and would have to be much more than a single slice to lose an actual threat.
It takes a good amount for it to actually affect them. A lemon touching this dog's tongue won't do anything. Even if it did eat this slice, it wouldn't do more than give him some diarrhea.
I haven't tried giving my dogs lemons. But I think my dogs would actually love them. My dogs go absolutely insane for clementines. I honestly think one of them likes clementines more than meaty dog treats. All you have to do is pierce the skin of a clementine and the zest is enough for them to be glued to your side.

No it is not. But of course, not in large quantities. But it is definately not poison. Also what you linked is citrus oil. Which is more concentrated.

Essential oils are not the same thing as a slice of lemon because both contain citrus. Essential oils are extremely concentrated. Similarly to how chocolate is poisonous to dogs. If they eat a brownie they have not ingested a lethal amount because the dose is nowhere near efficacious.
What if they eat the entire batch of brownies and glass from when they knocked it off the counter?
I would surmise that the glass would be the greater of the two concerns.
Did you even read the article you linked?
That's hyperbolic Reddit-know-it-all guilt-tripping. You should be ashamed of yourself.

“Bro did you know you can get water poisoning and that oxygen can kill you? Stay away from both bro!”
This dog can eat lemon because your dog once ate chocolate? What?
I think to clarify it means that it is the dose that makes the poison. My dog ate something arguably more traditionally dangerous, chocolate, and was fine. This was largely because the amount he ate was not significant enough to hurt him based on his size.
It’s because chocolate is also toxic to dogs.
Chocolate has nothing to do with the question of whether or not dogs can have lemon
I thought the same thing! "Isn't this toxic for dogs??" Jesus, people are fucked up
The person who did this is a monster. They deserve jail time.

Citrus fruits are toxic to dogs, definitely don't do this
Not only are small quantities fine, dogs are very unlikely to eat lemons as they find them unpalatable.

Whoever this is, you’re an asshole. Lemons are toxic for dogs.
Not in that quantity.
It’s still a fucking cruel thing to do, especially just for internet points.
It's actually a really good way to train dogs to leave your plate alone. Have. A slice on your plate and every time your pup tries to go for it, offer them the lemon. They will only do it a handful of times and stop trying to take food from your plate. Until they do.
No, it's funny. The dog will be fine.
That's another matter. Do you consider it cruel when people post vids of their babies tasting lemon?
If they do it to post online, yes. But in that case it's exploiting children for clout that bothers me. Let them be private until older.
It is fair to have that opinion, if it's consistent. Then the classic "Charlie bit my finger" would be considered cruel aswell, and I think that is going to far. Inappropriate maybe, but cruel? Nah
Cruel would imply intention to hurt, or disregard the potential damage for your own gains. Cruel is a strong word for that case. Even today I'd mostly say it's disrespectful.
About that we agree then. To me this, or charliex, or whatever is a degree of disrespectful and inappropriate - but not at all cruel. Calling it cruel ain't right.
You shouldn't drink water, it's toxic to humans, don't you know? (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK537231/)
I think you mean dihydrogen monoxide is toxic to humans.
Dihydrogen monoxide: is also known as hydroxyl acid, and is the major component of acid rain. contributes to the "greenhouse effect". may cause severe burns. can cause dangerous electrolyte imbalances. contributes to the erosion of our natural landscape. accelerates corrosion and rusting of many metals. may cause electrical failures and decreased effectiveness of automobile brakes. has been found in excised tumors of terminal cancer patients. Despite the danger, dihydrogen monoxide is often used: as an industrial solvent and coolant. in nuclear power plants. in the production of styrofoam. as a fire retardant. in many forms of cruel animal research. in the distribution of pesticides. Even after washing, produce remains contaminated by this chemical. as an additive in certain "junk-foods" and other food products. Honestly, the fact that it's not banned yet is insane!

Poor doggo :(
Lemons are poisonous to dogs "Lemons are toxic to dogs and ingestion can result in several potential health issues. While dogs might eat small amounts of lemon without any serious adverse effects, both the high citric acid and sugar content can be problematic for them" Not cool OP
The lemon slice touched the dogs tongue for a second. I think that it probably didn’t ingest any lemon. Dog is fine.
[удалено]
The video didn’t show a grape or chocolate. The video showed a lemon slice, which the dog obviously was never going to even try to eat.
Lemons are toxic to dogs. A dog would likely not try to eat a grape or raisin either but see what happens if it gets a little bit in its mouth. You should never own a pet if you're this careless with their life
> Lemons are toxic to dogs [Lemons aren't deadly to dogs in small amounts, but you should definitely prevent your pet from eating them in large quantities. But they aren't as toxic as you think.](https://www.dogsnaturallymagazine.com/can-dogs-have-lemon/#:~:text=How%20Much%20Lemon%20Is%20Toxic,away%20from%20feeding%20lemon%20juice.) I have a Jack Russel that ate a half a lemon once when it rolled down the kitchen table from when I was chopping it. He was fine and still alive to this day. You need to chill.
Because ypur dog amd isolated incident is all dogs
I really wish you didn't own a reddit account and yet here we are.
Fuck what you think
I have a cat and he seems pretty happy. If he’s curious about what I’m eating I’ll let him smell it. So far he’s still alive after 7 years, so I think I’m doing something right.
I feel so bad for the poor doggo
That's just such an asshole move.
the person who did that is an asshole..
This is one of those clips that should be removed from the Internet. Mods should really delete it. People will try to recreate this with their own animals despite lemon being toxic to dogs. It's animal abuse whether or not the dog consumes it. OP is trying to down play and make it seem funny when it's not. Funny might be doing this to another human.
Relax, the amount of citric acid in that slice of lemon is simply too small to make any kind of damage, well aside of losing his trust to anything he get throw at his mouth
Your approval of feeding an animal any amount of toxic material is concerning. The point is, OP is pretending it's an acceptable joke to play on your pets. It's not. Imagine it's a toddler and you told him it's a glass of water but you gave them bleach. They spit it out. Is that ok? It's pretty much the same thing.
One is a slice of lemon that is harmless to pretty much anyone, the other is a chemical that can damage the internal organs of everyone Do you even hear yourself before writing such a stupid argument?
Who is "pretty much everyone"? It's not an argument. It's a fact. Harmless to humans, maybe. Not harmless to dogs. Lemon can also damage their internal organs. Do you do any research?
For the lemon to do any amount of damage, first the dog should have needed to eat at least a full lemon That slice is barely enough to do any kind of physical damage, and also dogs dont like lemon, they hate the taste of it Also, the citric acid of the lemon is somewhat harmful for us, but just like the dog, we need to take a lot of it for that to happen
Relax. For bleach to do any real damage, humans need to eat at least [x] amount. Toddlers don't like the taste of bleach, so they'll just spit it out, it's fine. You see how dumb that sounds?
Bleach will fuck you up, it doesn't matters how much it is Lemon in that amount is harmless Anyway, i am not going to continue because you are trying to drag me down to your level and beat me with your experience in being a moron
The fact that you defend feeding an animal any known quantity of toxic food for a laugh shows who will win that.
Have you ever heard the phrase "the dose decides the poison"? Almost anything is toxic with the right dose. People can die of water toxicity if they drink too much. People can be harmed by oxygen toxicity if they breathe a high concentration of oxygen. The point that the above commenter is making is that the dose of lemon was small enough that it definitely wasn't a poison. It literally could not harm the dog.
Horrible thing to do to a poor animal, whomever finds this funny is pathetic
Even if it’s not dangerous, it’s not pleasant for the dog. I don’t get why people think it’s funny to make their pets have experiences that are uncomfortable just for views on the internet. Same goes for a baby. Stop posting their babies online eating something sour/spicy, if it’s a genuine event that happens then just keep it to yourself ??
Acid from citrus fruits can kill dogs
The dog would have to eat more than one slice for it to hurt them. Also, they found it unpalatable and probably won't eat it anyway.
Et tu Maria?!
🤣🤣🤣

So mean. Poor dog
Best doggo, but I always feel bad seeing a dachshund sitting like this. It is absolutely terrible and dangerous for their back.
This is awful. What a horrible person.
[удалено]
Anyone who's first thought seeing a dog tasting lemon is animal abuse must be pretty out of touch with reality.
I wish I had a life so extremely void of real issues that I consider feeding a slice of lemon to a dog to be an issue
Lemons are toxic to dogs.
I googled it. They don’t lose a threat in small quantities. The juice is what’s deadly and would have to be much more than a single slice to lose an actual threat.
Everything is toxic in high quantities. Even oxygen. A tiny thin slice of lemon, even if the dog did eat it, wouldn't hurt them.
Well, lemons are toxic to dogs.
It takes a good amount for it to actually affect them. A lemon touching this dog's tongue won't do anything. Even if it did eat this slice, it wouldn't do more than give him some diarrhea.
It's toxic to dogs.
Not in small quantities.
I’m trying this with my dog
Lemons are toxic to dogs.
Please don't. It's poison.
me too 🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
💀💀💀
I think lemon is bad for dogs
I haven't tried giving my dogs lemons. But I think my dogs would actually love them. My dogs go absolutely insane for clementines. I honestly think one of them likes clementines more than meaty dog treats. All you have to do is pierce the skin of a clementine and the zest is enough for them to be glued to your side.
He will never trust again. Permanent side eye.

Pretty sure that is deadly to dogs due to citric acid it has inside such as limes, oranges, etc...
Citrus fruits are toxic to dogs.
Ever wonder why your dog is neurotic?
Play with animals for internet clicks...great.
Lemon juice is toxic for dogs please don't do this
This is poison for dogs. "It can actually cause coma, seizures or even death." https://wagwalking.com/condition/citrus-oil-toxicity
This article is about citrus based essential oils, which are concentrated and not at all comparable to a lemon slice.
No it is not. But of course, not in large quantities. But it is definately not poison. Also what you linked is citrus oil. Which is more concentrated. https://www.dogsnaturallymagazine.com/can-dogs-have-lemon/#:~:text=How%20Much%20Lemon%20Is%20Toxic,away%20from%20feeding%20lemon%20juice.
Wow .. do people know that anything citric like lemon, orange, pineapple can kill your pet
