Hi everyone!
So Christmas is now almost upon us , hope you haven’t all left your shopping until the last minute to find nothing left on the shelves, we don’t want any disappointed doggies. Whilst we are on the Christmas theme then please give some thought to animal safety this festive season. Make sure your tree is secure and cables for the fairy lights are out of range of little teeth and lastly watch out for them chocolates on the tree, nuts and berries etc that may be left around. If you are having a real tree please ensure you don’t let the pine needles get in the dogs paws.
It’s very tempting to feed the dogs some of them Christmas leftovers so they are part of the festivities but please remember that some foods are harmful to your dogs, see the link here https://staffy-bull-terrier.niceboard.com/t454-dangerous-foods?highlight=poisonous+foods
