How many cherries can kill a dog?
According to Pet Poison Helpline, parts of both cherries and cherry trees contain cyanogenic glycosides.

One or two pitted cherries every now and then won't harm your dog, but they shouldn't become a regular treat.
Can a single cherry kill a dog?
Sadly dogs can not eat cherries. The pits contain cyanide, and also pose a risk of blockages. Pitted cherries are high in sugar, which is not healthy for your dog. And a couple of missed pits could prove deadly.
What happens if a dog eats 1 cherry?
A single cherry pit will not cause cyanide poisoning. But you should look out for symptoms of intestinal blockage, including vomiting, decreased appetite, constipation, and decreased fecal production. These symptoms may appear up to 24 hours after your dog swallowed a cherry pit.
