That's like me. I never really did until I read about a lady here whose 2 little ones(I think it was 2 for some reason but maybe was one only) got some Xylitol from some BBQ sauce, I think it was, she fed them a taste of. She realized somehow in time to check the label to see if it had any Xylitol in it, it did(!) and rushed them immediately to the Vet ER, where both were pretty bad off but one nearly died, I think from liver and then ?kidney? failure. Might be wrong about the kidney involvement but that poor little thing was so critically ill. That baby was nearly poisoned to death by that tiny bit of Xylitol. Apparently, when they get very little Xylitol the time frame is very limited to save their lives and thankfully she was aware and got them to help in time. Since reading her thread and the close call with her dog(s), and then reading some other things about how iffy the Yorkie liver can be at times, I got to be very cautious about things I put in and on Tibbe. That enzyme spray may be perfectly fine but until I know for sure, I'm scared to use it regularly enough to help so it's useless to us. Poor Yorkies and their dental problems!
