Keeping dogs safe means knowing which plants and foods they shouldn't eat. While dogs may be eager to sniff and sample everything in sight, certain plants and foods pose serious risks.
For instance, the ingestion of onions, garlic, and chives can lead to blood cell damage, while common garden plants like oleander, foxglove, and sago palm are highly toxic and can cause everything from gastrointestinal upset to severe cardiac issues. If your dog eats something harmful, it's important to get help from a vet right away.
Cats, with their innate curiosity, often find themselves in close contact with various houseplants and garden vegetation. However, not all plants are safe for pets, and some can be downright dangerous. Cats can get sick from eating just a little bit of these plants, showing symptoms like throwing up, acting tired, or drooling a lot.
It's important for pet owners to know which plants are dangerous and keep them away from pets to keep them safe. Making sure pets can't get to toxic plants might take some work, but the health of your cat companions is the main goal.
