Summer time fun often includes a BBQ !
Protect your pets by keeping them away from hot grills, securing the rubbish, and enforcing a "no scrap" rule.
Key hazards include cooked bones, corn cobs, onions, and skewers, which can cause severe internal blockages or toxicity.
Kebab skewers, foil wrappers, and wooden toothpicks are dangerous choking and puncturing hazards if swallowed.
Politely ask guests and children not to sneak table scraps to your pet. Foods containing onions, garlic, grapes, raisins, xylitol (artificial sweetener), and alcohol are highly toxic to dogs and cats.
Our pets might not be able to safely enjoy snacks off the barbecue, so why not prepare a tasty treat of their own to enjoy? This could be a thirst-quenching pet-safe snack or a puzzle feeder filled with kibble to keep them entertained.
