Peach pits contain cyanide compounds and can cause severe intestinal obstruction.
Like other stone-fruit pits, peach stones release cyanide when chewed and pose a serious physical obstruction hazard.
Peach pits contain amygdalin, a cyanogenic glycoside that breaks down into hydrogen cyanide. The rough surface and size of the pit also make intestinal obstruction common, especially in medium and small dogs.

Crushing or chewing the pit releases cyanide; swallowed whole the main risk is obstruction. Both warrant veterinary advice.
