Most people have no idea how many things are toxic to dogs. While human medication is an obvious answer, lots of human foods can cause issues as well. Such as; Macadamia Nuts, Onions, Garlic, Raw Fish, Raw Eggs, Grapes, Raisins, Chocolate, Coffee, Broccoli, Avocado, Nutmeg, Excessive Animal Fats, Xylitol (mentioned above, it's artificial sweetener), and often Diary Products. This is just off the top of my head too.
I'm really glad Bandit appears to be doing better! I know what expensive vet bills are like. Our cat is only allowed outside for a few minutes to eat grass (very occasionally), she ended up getting stung by a hornet and it turned infectious. We ended up spending $300 to get her better.
