Are you sure it is the tomato itself that can be harmful for arthritic dogs and not the green parts of the plant. Tomatoes are fruit and they have never been considered harmful for dogs. I would have thought it was a bit like rhubarb - the vegetable (yes, it is a veggie) is ok for people but the leaves are poison.
Taylor has never been given tomatoes - not that he has arthritis - but it is not the kind of food I would think to give to dogs.
