Dates are not poisonous for dogs, but the pits can be very dangerous for dogs, so I would never recommend giving an entire date. The other concern with dates is that they are very high in sugar and fiber, so you need to be careful how much you give a small dog like a Pomeranian. But small amounts of a date without any pit inside can be used for an occasional treat. I hope that was helpful and answered your question.
