 Dietary indiscretion involving the consumption of human food by domesticated dogs can be harmful and can result in conditions including acute inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis) and acute gastritis.In addition to these conditions, dietary indiscretion can be harmful to animals if non-digestible items, such as bones, are consumed.These items cannot be digested, and as such they often become lodged in the intestinal tract, causing severe, often life-threatening, digestive distress.
