Hello everybody!

Did you know that Onions are toxic to dogs. The toxicity is dose dependent, so
the bigger the animal, the more onion need be consumed to cause a toxicity.
Onion toxicity causes a Heinz body anemia. Heinz bodies are small bubble-like
projections which protrude from a red blood cell and can be seen when the
cells are stained. This "bubble" is a weak spot in the red blood cell and,
therefore, the cell has a decreased life-span and ruptures prematurely.
