DogSafe severity score
2/10

Pita Chips is not a routine dog treat. Pita chips are generally a salty, oily snack rather than a toxin, but garlic, onion, and cheese flavors are common. Plain chips in a tiny amount are different from a seasoned bag raid. A small taste and a large raid are different situations, so check the recipe or package before deciding what to do.
