Unbaked bread dough can be poisonous to your pets. The dough can expand in the stomach if eaten. This may cause twisting and cutting off the blood supply. This is a serious situation and the pet will need Emergency Surgery.
The yeast in the dough can also produce alcohol, leading to seizures and respiratory failure. It is best when baking bread, that you keep an eye on it at all times. Again, it's better to be safe than have to face an emergency situation.
