Sniffaris: The Type of Walk Dogs Love Most 🐶❤️

Many pet parents tend to think of dog walks as a time for their canine BFF to relieve themselves or get some exercise (which are important, of course). But for dogs, walking is their chance to satisfy the desire to sniff the always-fascinating world outside their home. They explore the world with their noses, so don’t deprive them of their scent-ventures. 🐕🚶

🚫 A Warning to Pet Parents This 🚫

Macadamia nuts are the only nuts pets should steer clear of, as they can cause profound GI upset if ingested even in very small amounts. Other types of raw, unsalted nuts are safe for pets – they don’t contain any toxins that affect pets – but are still listed on many websites as “foods pets should avoid” because they can be a choking hazard (so chop all nuts into tiny, bite-sized pieces before using as training treats 👍). And remember, no macadamias for pets.

ATTENTION Pet Parents!

A chemical used in Milk-Bones, Ol’Roy, Kibbles’n Bits, Hill’s Pet Food and other pet foods should no longer be considered safe for consumption due to concerns about its ability to damage DNA according to a new animal-model study.

According to the Environmental Working Group: “A scientific panel created by the European Food Safety Authority found that titanium dioxide “can no longer be considered as safe when used as a food additive.” The panel, citing concerns about titanium dioxide’s genotoxicity, or its ability to damage DNA, based its conclusion on a review of hundreds of scientific studies. EWG called on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to quickly consider whether to ban titanium dioxide from use in food."

A chemical that may damage our pet's DNA should not be fed to pets.

Titanium dioxide is on The Forever Dog’s Dirty Dozen list of additives you need to avoid in your pet food. www.ForeverDog.com/about

I’ve seen others posting about the new Channing Tatum movie “Dog” so I wanted to put my thoughts out there. Every time a dog breed is featured in a film, there is a surge in ownership of that breed, without understanding of what that breed is. Malinois are serious dogs, and need a LOT of training. They are amazing, intelligent, driven dogs, but not for most homes. If you see the movie and think, “ it’d be really cool to have a dog like that,” just don’t. You’ll be in over your head, and with a Mal that can be dangerous. So appreciate them, read books about all the cool stuff they have done in war zones, but don’t think that translates to a dog that is content to sleep on the sofa 22 hours a day. As an example of this I present the photo of 2 kitted out special forces soldiers in training, and the most dangerous weapons these guys are carrying wear basket muzzles.
