My dog ate pork cooked with onion. Is it safe or toxic for him?

Question

I met a very hungry stray dog and gave him a piece of stewed pork from my lunch box. It was not until later that I remembered that the pork had been stewed with one medium onion (but I don't think there was any onion on the piece of meat I gave him). Now I'm worried I might have harmed the dog. Is the level of toxin in that piece of meat might be high enough to cause any trouble, if the meat was only boiled together with onion?

That is nice of you to share your food with John, poor dog. The pork being stewed with onion will not hurt him, so no need to worry there. Pork is quite fatty, which can cause problems in dogs, but one piece may not cause issues. If you do happen to see him again, try to offer him boiled white meat chicken (no bones or skin) and white rice if you happen to have some. I hope this helps.
