Is mold in food dangerous?

In most cases, mold in dog food will make the food taste “off” to dogs.  However, some dogs will still eat mouldy food.  You may notice some mild intestinal upset such as vomiting, diarrhea or lack of appetite.  There are some types of mold that can actually make dogs very sick.  If a mold contains mycotoxins then this can cause more serious neurological issues such as seizures.
