No. For one thing, dogs don’t enjoy the taste of sour citrus fruits like lemons and limes. But the psoralen compounds and aromatic oils in lemons are toxic to dogs and can cause an upset stomach.
Symptoms to Look For
Dogs are unlikely to eat a lemon voluntarily. If your pet does get ahold of one, be sure to call your vet if you notice:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Unusual light sensitivity
