🍔🐾 **Before you share from the grill, make sure it’s pet-safe!**
Backyard BBQs are fun for the whole family, but some cookout favorites can be dangerous for pets. Keep curious noses away from plates, trash cans, and dropped food.
🚫 **Foods pets should avoid include:**
- Bones
- Corn cobs
- Onions
- Grapes and raisins
- Alcohol
- Chocolate
- Fatty or seasoned meats
Even a small bite of the wrong food can cause choking, stomach upset, pancreatitis, or toxicity.
✅ Want to include your pet in the BBQ fun? Offer a pet-safe treat instead and make sure they have plenty of fresh water and shade.
🐶🐱 Wishing you and your pets a safe and happy summer cookout!
