Things dogs should not eat, but do anyway comprises a very long list.
What you must determine is the potentially harmful things easily at his disposal.
You should learn which will just make your dog sick and which things are fatal.
All dogs and puppies have a very curious nature.
Combine that with unsupervised boredom, and the result can be an expensive vet visit and a very sick dog.
We all know that most puppies will spend a year or more in puppy-hood chewing on chairs, closet doors and shoes.
That is normal.
However you may have household items inside your house that can actually be poisonous to your dog.
Try to observe your dogs environment inside the house, nothing is off limits from going in his mouth.
Remember, your dog can not determine what things are bad for him.
Curious dogs will chew on just about everything.
Several household plants will sicken or kill your dog.
Christmas poinsettias can make your dog quite sick but will not have fatal results.
Perfumed household chemicals and cleaners can also be inviting for a dog and in the garage antifreeze tastes great, but can result in kidney failure.
Put all household chemicals somewhere other than under your sink or in cupboards.
Do not assume that your dog can not open cupboards or even the refrigerator.
Take a good look around the outside of your house as well for possible digestible hazards.
Garden hoses, plastic flower pots, bark under your bushes can be quite appetizing.
Remove these temptations if your dog seems interested, or has started chewing on and eating these things.
Most of these things are not hazardous to the dog but may be to your pocketbook when you make a trip to the vet for stomach surgery.
