 Many common items found in our homes can be toxic to dogs and cats. If you think about all the places your pet walks, sniffs, and licks, it is not surprising that they come in contact with hazardous materials. The most common poisons that your pets will encounter include household plants, medications (especially human), insecticides and fertilizers, cleaning products and some human foods. Unfortunately, some of the most common toxins in dogs and cats are when they are given overdoses or unsafe medications by owners who are tying to help. If you are unsure whether something is safe for your pet, please contact the staff at the Animal Hospital of Waynesboro. Keep medications and cleaners safely in a cabinet beyond the pets reach. And make sure to always keep a lid on your garbage.
