Can my dog eat pizza?
No.
Pizza sauce is usually built on onion and garlic, with a lot of cheese, salt and fat. One stolen piece isn't an emergency.
Already ate it?
If they ate itA small piece or a crust: watch at home. Several slices, or any vomiting, weakness or pale gums over the following days, means call a vet.
Watch forVomiting, diarrhoea, refusing food or a hunched, painful belly over the next 1–2 days (fat); weakness, pale gums or dark urine 3–5 days later (onion and garlic).
Thinking of giving it?
WhyIt's the combination that does the damage — onion and garlic toxicity, plus a fat and salt load that can trigger pancreatitis. Crusts aren't a safe compromise; they carry the same sauce and seasoning.

Nothing on the never list is in a Wagbowl bowl. No onion, no garlic, no salt.
