Can a dog eat tomato? Our dog threw up their tomato chunk

So it does happen.

To avoid it happening again my plants are put on high plant stands.

Or you could get that thing that raises the plants upside down apparently it works better for them (it was a commercial I saw years ago). but I would never grow tomato. The only reason mine fell was because I was trying to remove it from the sandwhich that time and she jumped on my leg and it fell. I am not fond of tomatoes (but my mother sure is).

I plan on planting things in the new house, but I am going to be careful enough to not pick anything toxic to dogs.

I hope to have my own small pond area so I can raise koi, watercress, water lillies, and duckweed along with mosquito fish(for the obvious in its name) or some other cold water pond fish.

But I doubt any of that is toxic to a dog(though I'd be pretty angry if they'd ruin it. lol).

I doubt we can grow much on it since the yard is going to have a slope for a yard...

Using up side down tomatoes when owning a dog is not ideal, tomatoes as they ripen get heavy and will fall off the vine. Even if they are ripe, one would not want their dogs eating an entire tomato. Doesn't matter if you didn't intentionally feed the pup the tomato, look at what you have learned from an accident.
