I wouldn't recommend it, Avocados contain a substance called persin,
although it's harmless for humans who aren't of course allergic, Large amounts can be toxic to dogs, so if you happen to be growing avocados at home, keep your dog away from the plants, Persin is in the leaves, seed and bark as well as in the fruit.

Can avocado pits poison dogs?
It's possible, but not probable. There are some toxins in an avocado pit and in the skin, and also in the leaves and bark of the plant itself. But birds are the animal group most "at risk" from them. It is possible that an animal could have an allergic reaction to this fruit (technically a berry), and that included people. It' probably a good idea to dispose of the seeds so the dogs can't get to them, just in case.
