With Halloween fast approaching, it's important to make sure that your pet does not get into your candy stash. There are many food products that have moved to using Xylitol as a sweetener to replace sugar. Xylitol is very toxic to dogs, causing their blood sugar to drop. Some common things that may contain xylitol are chewing gum, cough drops, toothpaste, candy, mints, diet supplements, protein bars, nut butters.
"Symptoms of xylitol poisoning in dogs include vomiting, followed by symptoms associated with the sudden lowering of your dog’s blood sugar, such as decreased activity, weakness, staggering, incoordination, collapse and seizures.
If you think your dog has eaten xylitol, take him to your vet or an emergency animal hospital immediately. Because hypoglycemia and other serious adverse effects may not occur in some cases for up to 12 to 24 hours, your dog may need to be hospitalized for medical monitoring."
For more information on Xylitol from the FDA click here: https://www.fda.gov/consumers/consumer-updates/paws-xylitol-its-dangerous-dogs

It's one of the most popular dog treats on the market, but is it safe for your dog? It depends. Rawhide treats are generally well loved by our dogs but they can pose a problem for dogs that have sensitive stomachs or are heavy chewers that will swallow large chunks. Treats that are made in countries other than the USA may also pose health risks as they may contain unsafe chemicals.
If you do choose to give your pet rawhide treats keep these safety tips in mind.
*Buy only USA made treats
*Watch your dog closely to make sure they don't try to swallow large pieces, and remove any large pieces that break off.
*Make sure your dog doesn't get an upset stomach after eating a rawhide
For more information on rawhide treats see this article: https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/health/are-rawhide-chews-dangerous-for-dog/

It's The Happiest Place on Earth and over 200 cats call it home. Yes that's right, these lucky felines get to call Disneyland their home! Since the 1950's, Disneyland has allowed these cats to roam the park to help eradicate any rodent infestations. The park is equipped with feeding and shelter stations, and staff is in place to monitor their health and make sure they are spayed/neutered and up to date on their vaccinations.

Certain dog breeds are blessed with thick fur for the winter, but other dog breeds aren’t so lucky. To protect your dog in the colder months, try limiting outdoors time in the winter and keep an eye on their paws. Dogs can suffer from cracked pads in the winter, so trim the hair between their paws. It is also important to rinse and wipe your dog’s feet to remove any salt. ❄️

With the large amounts of recent snowfall, it's a good idea to shovel a path in the yard so your dog has a safe, flat area to relieve themselves outside. This also allows for easier waste removal so that it doesn't build up over the winter hidden under the snow.
* A winter reminder to our customers - please make sure that your yard gates have been cleared and are accessible to our yard technicians. If they cannot access the gate, they cannot clean the yard. We thank you for your cooperation. *

Do you have a bird feeder outside? Feeding the wild birds is beneficial to the bird population. A bird needs to eat at least half their body weight in food per day to survive. Watching the birds come to your feeder can be a very enjoyable experience, and I know that my cats love watching the birds from the windows as well!
