🐕 Safety Analysis — Dogs
The warm environment of the stomach causes the dough to ferment, producing ethanol (alcohol toxicity) and carbon dioxide (gastric dilation, bloating). The expanding dough can cause life-threatening bloat and gastric torsion.
Symptoms to Watch For
Distended abdomen, vomiting, disorientation, weakness, low body temperature, seizures
🐱 Safety Analysis — Cats
Fermentation produces ethanol and gas, leading to alcohol toxicity and gastric distension. Cats are smaller, making bloat even more dangerous.
Symptoms to Watch For
Distended abdomen, vomiting, disorientation, weakness, low body temperature
