Why It's Dangerous
Hummus is made from chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, and very commonly raw garlic, which is toxic to dogs. The garlic content is usually the main concern rather than the chickpeas or oil themselves.
Symptoms to Watch For
- Vomiting
- Diarrhoea
- Weakness and lethargy (garlic toxicity)
- Pale gums
- Abdominal discomfort
Vet Guidance
Contact your vet given how commonly hummus contains raw garlic as a standard ingredient, not just an occasional addition.
