ARE YOU SECRETLY KILLING YOUR PET? IF YOU DO THIS YOUR PET WILL LIVE TWO YEAR LESS

You want your animal to be vital and healthy and around for as long as possible, right? Sick animals and early deaths are a drag. There are many toxic substances in our homes that can be potentially harmful, including a plethora of toxic foods for pets and household pet toxins. Whether you’re a first-time owner or an experienced fur baby parent, it’s essential to keep your animal in top physical and mental shape. Learn about ways you might endangering your companion now — and get back on track to having a healthy, happy pet. 

 1. Not giving your dog proper exercise
Exercise is key to keeping your dog — and yourself — healthy and happy. If you don’t give your pup a way to release energy he or she could end up being nervous, or worse — destructive. Overweight dogs tend to live two years less than those who are fit.

 2. Grapes and Raisins
Pet owners should avoid leaving grapes and raisins on countertops and avoid giving dogs cookies that contain raisins, or even chocolate or yogurt-covered raisins as treats. Unfortunately, the reason for kidney failure and the amount of grapes/raisins necessary to be toxic to pets is unknown, so all cases of ingestion have the potential to be grave.

 3. Oven cleaners and Automatic Dishwasher Detergents
Also known as alkaline substances, oven cleaners and automatic dishwasher detergents have little odor or taste, making them easier to consume by curious pets. Those convenient dishwasher pods are often targeted by pets — and children.
Severe injury to the eyes, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and respiratory system can be seen and require immediate decontamination, medication, and supportive care by a veterinarian. 

 4. Alcohol
While most of us know alcohol is bad for our pets, there are some who think it’s funny to share a beer with their pet. According to the Pet Poison Helpline, alcohol poisoning in pets is all too common.  Ingestion of alcohol can cause dangerous drops in blood sugar, blood pressure, and body temperature. Intoxicated animals can experience seizures and respiratory failure. 

 5. Coffee Pods, Beans and Grounds
Coffee beans, grounds, and brewed coffee contain caffeine, a very dangerous and toxic chemical to cats and dogs. Ingestion can be life-threatening. According to the Pet Poison Helpline, a moderate amount of coffee can easily cause death in small dogs or cats. Be careful where you store your coffee — and your discarded grounds. Make sure your pet can’t gain access to what’s inside your trash can.
