Our dog Lucky (who has since passed on) was a border collie black lab mix. He got into my daughter's school bag and got a lie a of gum. I had no idea about xylitol until then. We rushed him to the e-vet. Fifth two hours later after constant iv's and bloodwork he survived but another dog who was brought in and was smaller did not. It was awful. We never left the vet's office and we cried many tears for our Lucky we were so afraid, and then for the other poor dog and his family. There should be more warnings about xylitol. It is not just in gum either.

I never think this gum is harmful for our pet. This is a dangerous and I surly keep away my pet from gums. Thanks to share this important information with us.

Prettylola - I am glad you are finding this information useful

I too didn't realise about sugar free gum being dangerous until I read it on here!
