it was on today noon news that this artifical sweetner is lethel to dogs. as it raises their blood sugar levels to fast and to high. the littler the dog the more lethel. so word of warning to all pet owners do not put this in your animals foods. that is if you cook/bake w/ artifical sweetners.

OMG - Thank you for the warning! I will definitely watch out for that! I'm pre-diabetic, so I do use artificial sweetners of various types. I didn't know any were toxic to pets!

Thanks for the warning. I have small dogs & didn't know that. Crystal
