In reply to Claire Lohmeyer. Thankyou so much for giving us more understanding of xylitol. I have been panicking for days thinking I may have given my dog something I wasn't suppose to. My dog is 7yrs old and out of the blue about 6 months ago he had a fit. He's never had one before and then only yesterday he had another. It's very scary and idk what to do .I love my dog so much and don't want to lose him. And I'd love to be able to take him to the vet but I just simply can't afford it. I would give my own life to save his.

In reply to ConcernedDogmum. Hi there. Xylitol was an ingredient in some of these products, but my understanding is that AquadentFR3SH (the replacement for Aquadent) and Oxyfresh do NOT contain xylitol. However, I’m not sure that any in-water additives for dental care are well-supported by any evidence. Read better ways here.

Hi there after researching water additives for dog dental care I found OxyFresh and Aquadent contain xylitol and Tropiclean contains sorbitol, are there actually any safe water additives out there.

In reply to Claire Lohmeyer. Hi Claire. It seems that only xylitol is toxic to dogs.

Thanks for the information. Are all artificial sweeteners toxic to dogs, or is it just xylitol in particular that is so severe? I’m obviously not planning on deliberately feeding any sweeteners to my dog, but if they somehow ingested food with a sweetener would it still be a vet emergency?

Thanks for the list. Not knowing what contains Xylitol made me anxious about giving my dog anything apart from dog foods. Your list alleviates that fear and gives me an idea of what to watch for so thank you very much for publishing it.
