Can Dogs Eat Tomatoes?
Verdict
Feed with caution
Ripe red flesh is okay; green parts are toxic.
Why it is risky
Ripe tomato flesh is non-toxic in small amounts. Green tomatoes, stems, and leaves contain solanine which is toxic.
Safe portion
A few small pieces of ripe red tomato occasionally.
Symptoms to watch for
Green tomato ingestion: vomiting, diarrhoea, weakness, confusion.
Always consult your vet. If your dog has eaten something you're worried about — or shows any unusual symptoms — call your veterinarian or a pet poison helpline immediately. This page is editorial guidance, not emergency advice for an individual animal.
