    Is confectionery sugar harmful to dogs?
    My husband just informed me that my puppy got into confectionery sugar this morning. We aren't sure how much she ate, he said that it didn't look like much but I am just wondering what to watch for.

    I wouldn't expect any toxic reaction. Be glad it wasn't raisins, a handful could have killed her. Almost anything strange can lead to diarrhea. She could be on a sugar high. Other than that, I don't think a single, large dose will hurt.

    Thank you labman, I definitely feel a lot better, and I think I will be moving raisins to the highest shelf possible just in case.
