Special Note: Pennies since 1982 may be fatal if swallowed by a dog because they contain zinc. Also nuts
and bolts contain zinc and don't easily pass through the digestive system. They sit in the stomach and are
dissolved by the stomach acids, slowly poisoning the pet. Symptoms include jaundice, vomiting, and difficulty
in breathing. If you suspect a dog has ingested pennies or any other foreign objects, have the pet x-rayed.
