The correct steps to handle if your dog eats persimmons:

1. Stop feeding. If the dog shows abnormal symptoms, the owner needs to stop feeding the dog persimmons immediately.

2. Observe the situation. Observe the dog's physical health first. A small amount of persimmons will not have any impact on the dog.

3. Send to hospital for treatment. If your dog has vomiting or diarrhea, you should take your dog to the hospital for treatment, and the doctor will prescribe some gastrointestinal relief drugs for treatment.

The reasons why dogs eat less persimmons:

1. The nutritional conversion rate is low. Although persimmons contain a certain proportion of sugar, water, and vitamins, dogs cannot absorb them directly and effectively.

2. Gastrointestinal discomfort. Dogs’ intestines and stomachs are more fragile than humans, making it difficult for them to digest fruits and vegetables. Eating persimmons to dogs may cause them indigestion and gastrointestinal discomfort.

3. Possible pesticide poisoning. Persimmon skins usually contain a small amount of chemical residues such as pesticides, which may cause poisoning to dogs and even be life-threatening in severe cases.
