Can my pet eat Green or sprouted potato?

Caution

With caution: Green or sprouted potato is only advisable in very small, occasional amounts.

Why

Solanine concentrates in green skin, in sprouts and in tomato plant leaves. Plain cooked potato is not the problem.

What to do

Throw away green parts and sprouts. If they ate some, watch for drooling, vomiting and tremors.
