Border Collie + Avocado
Caution — requires monitoring.
The verdict
Avocado contains Persin, which can cause mild gastrointestinal upset in dogs, making it a YELLOW toxicity concern. For a 43lb Border Collie, while severe reactions are uncommon, monitoring for digestive issues is important, especially if a large quantity was consumed.
Watch for these signs (next 12 hours)
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Lethargy
Recommended next steps
Closely observe your 43lb Border Collie for any signs of gastrointestinal distress over the next 12-24 hours. Ensure they have access to fresh water to prevent dehydration. If symptoms like persistent vomiting, diarrhea, or severe lethargy develop, contact your veterinarian for guidance.
