PET SAFETY: There are a number of potentially dangerous situations surrounding  your pets and the Holidays.

Decorations can be potentially lethal if eaten by your pet. Cats are notorious for consuming tinsel, used to decorate trees. These strands of shiny plastic can become entrapped in the bowel and lead to intestinal obstructions. Make sure decorations are out of reach from your pet.

Accidental or intentional ingestion of human foods by pets is a common source of illness and even death over the Holidays. Chocolate and raisins are around in abundance during this time of year and both are toxic to dogs. Feeding leftovers to pets has caused more than one case of pancreatitis; so resist the temptation to overindulge your pet.

Finally, be careful with those treats made especially for animals.

Monitor how much and how often rawhides and other chews are given. Over consumption can lead to intestinal blockage or gastroenteritis. If your pet quickly devours these types of treats be certain to space them out over a few days.

We want you all to have a Happy and Safe Holiday Season!
