From Natural News Dog Fancy Spring 2010
Found this interesting article by Holly Ocasio Rizzo
Penny royal:Used on collars to chase away flies& mosquitoes,highly toxic to dogs & cats if swallowed even tiny amounts can cause Liver problems.
Garlic: Too much can cause a acute onset of a blood disorder.
Dandelion & Parsley:May cause reactions in dogs with kidney disease.
Goldenseal & barberry: May be harmful to dogs with heart disease.
Kelp:May be harmful to dogs with Thyroid disease.
Comfrey & TEA TREE Oil are potentially dangerous to dogs and should only be given with professional guidance.
Since Flea & Tick season is up on us thought I would copy this from Dog Fancy so all can read their say on some of this.Also article about feeding raw in there Natural Dog section on this months magazine.

I always shake my head at people who give their dogs things and dont worry because after all it can't hurt them, it's "natural". It's good to be informed thanks for this list.
