What Human Food Should Chihuahuas Stay Away From?

I read in a book about chihuahuas that they should not eat pork because they can not digest it. Is this true?

Completely false. Only possible problem with pork is that it is a little fatty so you wouldn’t want to feed excess amounts.

Big "human" foods to avoid are grapes, raisins, onions, and of course chocolate. Here’s a few more: http://www.peteducation.com/article.cfm?c=2+1659&aid=1030

    Chocolate
    Cooked bones
    Raisins
    Grapes
    Onions
    Large amounts of garlic
    Caffeine
    Sugary beverages
    Alcohol
    High in sugar foods

    Chihuahuas should no be any different than other dog breeds, so pork does not effect them. It is high in fat, but otherwise it is good raw.
    High in sodium foods

    Few human foods are good for dogs. Either feed a RAW meat and bone diet, or feed a premium quality dog kibble.

    No dogs should ever eat any kind of human food. It can be very bad for them, so it’s best to just avoid it completely.
