6/ Small toys
A dog, after all, is nothing more than a child who doesn’t talk or cry! You need to be vigilant: logically, if they ingest small toys, there is a risk of choking. Take precautions and don’t leave small objects lying around.
7/ Lilies, tulips, hydrangeas and ivy
Certain plants are toxic for dogs. Plan your garden with care!
8/ Tobacco
Smoking isn’t good for anyone, as you already know. But it is even less so for your dog, given his body weight and the small size of his lungs. Inhaling smoke is one thing, but eating cigarette butts is quite another. Don’t leave your cigarette butts on the ground.
9/ Avocado
Avocados are well known for being a source of good fats. But what is good for us is not necessarily good for animals. The fat in avocados could damage your dog’s pancreas, and the seed is extremely toxic.
10/ Essential oils
Are you a fan of home-made air fresheners and perfumes? Don’t worry, it isn’t the smell or the vapours that will make your dog sick, only skin contact or ingestion.
