Holiday hazard: Dogs and chocolate
Recently, Bethany talked about protecting your pets during all the hubub of the holiday season. Visitors and general business can affect your pets profoundly, but there's another danger that you need to be wary of this holiday season: Chocolate. You've probably heard that Chocolate is deadly to pets, and it's true, so make sure you don't wrap any up for someone and put it under the tree -- fido could get ahold of it when you're not watching.
What to do if your dog or cat eats chocolate or another poisonous substance? Call your vet clinic or an emergency clinic as soon as possible.

When I asked my vet about this, she said that the most dangerous is baker's chocolate. And, it is lethal to dogs when they eat an ounce of chocolate per lb the dog weighs.

Protect your pets around the Holiday's by making sure that they are properly micro-chipped and registered. A great source to achieve this is www.helpmefindmypet.com, they provide you with the registration of your pets chip as well as a proactive Lost Pet Alert for a pet that goes lost or is stolen. Especially having guest staying with us over the holiday season whom might not know all the rules of house regarding our pets. It is very easy for a pet to slip out of a door opened by a clueless guest. Remember prevention and protection is the best way to keep your pet safe at home. Check out www.helpmefindmypet.com
