Why Your Pet Needs Supplements?
The average pet has the worst diet of any animal and the highest chance of
having a short life with many illnesses.
Supplementing your pet’s diet with at least one quality vitamin and mineral
supplement like Dogvit or Catvit will greatly help them to live a long and
healthy life. Vitamins and minerals are absolutely necessary for the proper
functioning of the animal body, just like humans. They are vital for fighting
the many free radicals created by many pet foods.
Supplementing your pet’s diet in today’s highly-processed world is not a luxury,
it is a necessity.
Keeping Your Pet Safe:
Pets need to be safe in their environment. But you cannot always remove every
potential hazard from your pets reach. Start by teaching them what is offlimits
with a sharp "No" or "Aughk" noise to show your displeasure. If you are
consistent and certain behaviors persist try commercial products that can be
sprayed into your pets mouth. "Bitter Apple" is one of these products. Pet
Supplement will not harm your pet but after a few sprays your pet will
discontinue hazardous behavior simply by seeing you show them the bottle!
1) House and Yard Plants:
Not only are a majority of houseplants poisonous to pets, they can be easily
ruined by animals shredding the leaves or knocking them over. Look for ivy
leaves, cyclamen, lily of the valley, rhododendrons, tulip bulbs, azalea,
wisteria, daffodils, delphiniums, rhubarb leaves and poinsettias are all
dangerous.
Even chewing on grass can be harmful if the grass has been recently sprayed with
pesticides.
2) Cleaning Products:
Many household cleaning products are also unsafe for pets. Never assume that if
the product is safe for humans it is also safe for pets. Even if you pet does
not eat the product, they could unknowingly walk through it and lick their paw.
Another danger is when the chemicals release fumes that cause skin or eye
irritations. Quaternary disinfectants which have a ammonium chloride base is
safer to use around animals than phenol or carbolic acid bases which can be
lethal.
The best disinfectant is called Chlorasan, it can be purchased from vets and
will kill most viruses and bacteria safely.
3) Household Dangers:
Keep gasoline, solvents, weed killers, antifreeze, rat poisons, boric acid,
mothballs varnish removers, acetone and other common everyday items out of your
pets reach. Think of your pet as a curious child and protect them by taking the
precautionary measures to prevent potential hazards.
Dogs can also suffer nicotine poisoning by consuming ashtray contents.
Remove pins and nails they could step on and make sure plastic bags are not left
on the floor as a suffocation hazard.
Pets could also chew on live electrical cords that could burn their mouth or
lead to death.
4) Dangerous Animals and Insects:
The common Black Widow spider is said to possess venom over 15 times as toxic as
many rattlesnakes. Check your property and animals sleeping areas often.
Bufo marinus, or giant toad, can secrete a dangerous toxin that could kill dogs
if ingested.
Part of being a responsible pet owner is to vaccinate your pet, create a safe
environment for them and familiarize yourself with potential dangers. |
