Happy Halloween Everyone! Halloween for your pets is different than for us.
Please be aware that treats/candy that would normally be out of reach may be accessible to your pets during this time.
Along with the dangers of some of these treats, your dog or cat may ingest the wrapper that they came in.
Unfortunately people leave candy wrappers on the ground in the park, on your street, or anywhere. These wrappings can cause blockages and even death.
Many candies and gums now use artificial sweeteners such as Xylitol which are toxic to your animals.
Decorations are fun for us but may be scary for your pet (eating them is also something to watch out for). Many move or make sounds that are not familiar to them.
Pets are naturally curious, and may be attracted to the flickering light of a flame. Dogs and cats could either burn themselves by the flame, or knock the candle over, accidentally setting your house on fire.
We all know about chocolate, and some of us know about raisins, but for a list of unsafe foods and holiday hazards go to: http://lasdogtrainer.com/holiday-hazards/
Should you have any questions or concerns about anything, please feel free to call or email Jacqueline Gaillard at LA's Dog Trainer.
Please pass this along to anyone you feel would like to have this information.
Remember, the goal is to keep dogs in their homes, not the vet’s office after Halloween.
