A mini thread🧵

1. Sugar causes skin allergies in dogs.

Much needed thread for everyone out there✨
I remember feeding dogs only Parle-G biscuits but had no idea that items as common as the ones you mentioned could be so harmful for them. Hopefully people see this and make sure they don’t feed such items which can be fatal for the dogs.
Please also do a thread in foods a dog can eat.
