  • Be aware of common seasonal dangers that may threaten your pet. One of the more prevalent outdoor problems for owners are foxtails. Foxtails are tiny barbed plant seeds that are designed to burrow into animals’ skin, eyes, ears, and mouths and can cause significant distress while potentially leading to infections and abscess formation.

  • Make sure that any houseplants are safe for your pet to be around. Problem plants are often including in cut flowers that are bought from the store (be particularly wary of anything in the lily family). For a list of toxic and non-toxic plants, check out the ASPCA website.
  • Microchip your pet. If lost, dogs with microchips are 2.5 times more likely to be returned home than dogs without microchips, and cats with microchips are 20 times more likely to be returned home.

  • Many common household chemicals are actually toxic and harmful to pets so make sure to lock up your household cleaners, insecticide, antifreeze, laundry detergent, bleach, and other chemicals where your pet can't get their little paws on them.

  • Massage your pet. Many pet owners don't realize that massage therapy for pets is actually a serious form of healthcare, not just pampering and not just glorified petting. This practice also allows you to monitor their health by checking for anything abnormal such as lumps, heat, or areas of tenderness.

  • Because some houseplants are poisonous to pets, double check to make sure that yours are safe. For more useful pet care tips to improve your pet's life, check out our website link in the bio. #petcaretips #freepetcaretips #forpetowners
  • Mind your pet's weight. Being overweight can lead to serious health problems for your pet, including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, arthritis, and more.

  • Your pet’s teeth are worth protecting! By age three, 80% of dogs and 70% of cats have some evidence of periodontal disease, even though it’s totally preventable. Dental problems don’t just limit themselves to your pet’s mouth—they can lead to serious and even fatal infections throughout your pet’s body. All the more reason to brush their teeth regularly and bring your pets in for regular dental cleanings at a veterinarian.

  • Make sure your pet has plenty of fresh filtered water every day. Public water systems can contain harmful bacteria, parasites, and other contaminants. Also, the longer the water sits out, the more oxygen it loses and the more opportunity is has for bacteria to grow.
