Don't dogs take a sniff first and know from their wild-dog DNA what not to munch on?

Sadly no, just as they chew and swallow batteries, plastic, string, wood, material, stones, snails and slugs and much else, grapes, onions, chocolate, cakes, raisins and much else that can kill them unless the owner is vigilant.There is also a long list for cats of poisonous plants and substances, and even more tricky for cats is that if they lick pollen they brush against from plants such as lilies it can be lethal.
