Why It's Dangerous
Green tea contains caffeine, which overstimulates a dog's heart and nervous system. Brewed tea is more diluted than dry leaves or bags, but a large amount, or concentrated green tea extract, can still deliver a meaningful dose.
Symptoms to Watch For
- Restlessness
- Rapid heart rate
- Vomiting
- Tremors in larger amounts
- Seizures in severe cases
Vet Guidance
Monitor after a small amount of brewed tea. Contact your vet if a large quantity was drunk or if your dog ate dry leaves or a concentrated extract.
