Toxic Items around the House

Unfortunately, many common household products are toxic to your canine. To keep your beloved furry friend safe, do a safety check around the house to make sure that these products are out of your canine's reach:

• Insecticides
• Household cleaners and disinfectants
• Rat Poisons
• Antifreeze
• Human medications
• Chocolate

Animal poisoning by drugs such as aspirin type products is the most common case that poison control centers see. Antifreeze is the most common "outdoor" product. Keep your pooch out of trouble by keeping these and other hazardous products locked away.
