Yorkshire Terrier + Avocado
Caution — requires monitoring.
The verdict
Even though avocado toxicity is generally considered moderate ('YELLOW'), a small 6lb Yorkshire Terrier is more vulnerable to the effects of Persin due to its small body mass. This means even a small amount could potentially cause more pronounced gastrointestinal upset compared to a larger dog.
Watch for these signs (next 12 hours)
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Lethargy
Recommended next steps
Monitor your Yorkshire Terrier closely for any of the listed symptoms over the next 12 hours. Contact your veterinarian immediately for advice, as they may recommend a check-up or specific supportive care given your dog's small size. Do not attempt to induce vomiting without explicit instruction from your vet.
