Why It's Dangerous

Wild garlic (ramsons) is a foraged plant that contains the same thiosulphate compounds as cultivated garlic, causing oxidative damage to red blood cells. It grows commonly in woodland areas where dogs may encounter it while walking.

Symptoms to Watch For

  • Vomiting and diarrhoea
  • Lethargy
  • Pale gums
  • Weakness
  • Collapse in severe cases

Vet Guidance

Contact your vet if your dog has grazed on wild garlic during a walk, especially in larger amounts.
