A friendly reminder, take care of those fur babies over the next few days. Most of this is common sense but it never hurts to have a gentle nudge of a reminder :)

Please do not buy. Throw them away if your dog gets one as a gift. Giving rawhide to a dog is never a good idea.

Many of these so called treats end up with the dog "enjoying" some time in a veterinary surgery over Christmas. The vast majority of these rawhide products and treats come from China.

The chews are made from cattle or horse hides and their journey starts with the hides being soaked in a toxic sodium sulfide to remove the hair and fat. More chemicals are used in order to split the hide into layers which is then washed with hydrogen peroxide to give the white "pure" look and remove the rancid smell.

Now comes the pretty festive colors and the glue to form cute shapes. On testing, these chews have shown traces of arsenic, mercury, chromium and formaldehyde.

If that wasn't bad enough, they regularly cause intestinal blockages, poisoning from chemical residue and choking. The chews go slippery when wet and are near impossible to get hold of to save a choking dog.

Happy National Fire Pup Day! 🐾🔥 Today, we celebrate all of the incredible K9's who work tirelessly to protect our communities. One pup in particular, Kai, was an incredible arson detection dog who dedicated nine years of her life to the San Antonio Fire Department.

Kai was rescued from a shelter as a puppy, and had a long and heroic career in fire investigation. In 2014, Kai was named the American Humane Hero Dog of the Year and she also inspired countless children by visiting schools and educating them about fire safety.

Kai will be forever remembered as a hardworking and loyal dog who made a lasting impact on her community. Let's celebrate all the fire pups who dedicate their lives to keeping us safe!
