I hear it said that rosemary causes seizures in dogs. I've never heard how much is a problem. Is there any kind of guideline? Also every dog food I've read the label on has it. The Karma I feed Shoni has it. I saw in another post about what dry food people are feeding that a lot of you are using Orijen Fish 6. I got a sample bag and Shoni likes, but it lists rosemary too. The organic foods especially use it as a preservative I think.

Shoni has not had a seizure, so is that the only indication that we can go by?
