Can dogs eat nutmeg?
🌰 Toxic — never feed
Nutmeg contains myristicin, which can cause disorientation and a racing heart in dogs.
If eaten: Avoid baked goods spiced with nutmeg.
The bottom line
Do not feed nutmeg to your dog — it is toxic and even small amounts can be dangerous. When in doubt, call your vet or a pet poison helpline.
For your dog's main diet, what matters most is the food itself. Paste your dog food's ingredients into the WoofScore checker to see how it grades.
