Some foods that are considered good for people can be very dangerous for pets. The list below highlights some of the most common foods that can be dangerous to your dog.
This is not an exhaustive list, and any decision to provide your pet with food not specifically intended for animals should be discussed with your veterinarian or pet nutritionist. If you suspect your dog has digested any of the below, please contact your Vet immediately.
I generally advise just using puppy kibble in the early stages but moving to good quaility
non-fatty treats as your dogs matures. I tend to use boiled chicken.
There are a number of potential pet toxins inside our homes, and plants make up a sizable portion of those toxins. Be aware of which plants are toxic, know the symptoms of pet poisoning, and have a plan in place in case of accidental poisoning, because the life and health of your pet may depend upon it.
Here are the top 10 most common houseplant offenders. For a more complete look at toxic plants (both indoors and outdoors), refer to the Humane Society.
Always contact your Vet if you are worried your dog has eaten or digested any of the below.
A common question this time of year is, “How cold is too cold for a dog?” The answer is a bit complicated, but thankfully, the good folks at Tufts University already developed a system for animal welfare officers to reference that we can utilize as a guide.
I have borrowed this beautifully illustraded guide from Dr. Kim Smyth at Pet Plan Insurance as I feel this perfectly demonstrates which temperatures are best for your dog, tempending on size etc.
No piece of equipment will get your dog to walk to heel. We have to train them to do this. Each dog is different and different collars/harnesses work better for each dog. Generally I recommend comfortable soft and thick texture always correctly labeled with contact details.
As always I am happy to advise on this in our initial consultation.
Please do not hesitate to contact Ali should you have any other questions
