Riddle: How did the chemist accidentally kill his dog?

Answer: He fed him a whole can of aluminum phosphate.

Aluminum phosphate

Disclaimers: (1) no actual dogs were harmed in the making of this awful pun, and (2) yes, I actually did the math regarding the toxicity of aluminum phosphate. Don’t feed it to your dog!
