- Summary
- Eggnog is a holiday beverage that poses multiple hazards to both dogs and cats due to several of its core ingredients. Alcohol (present in many recipes) can cause ethanol poisoning with signs including sedation, difficulty walking, hypoglycemia, hypothermia, metabolic acidosis, and respiratory failure; raw eggs carry a risk of Salmonella poisoning; dairy can cause digestive upset in lactose-intolerant pets; and spices such as nutmeg contain myristicin, which is toxic and can cause hallucinations, increased heart rate, and severe abdominal pain. Even sugar-free versions may contain xylitol, which is highly toxic to dogs.
