Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Male | 25 lbs
I met a very hungry stray dog and gave him a piece of stewed pork from my lunch box. It was not until later that I remembered that the pork had been stewed with one medium onion (but I don't think there was any onion on the piece of meat I gave him). Now I'm worried I might have harmed the dog. Is the level of toxin in that piece of meat might be high enough to cause any trouble, if the meat was only boiled together with onion?
