⚠️WARNING WHEN FREEZING TREAT TOYS
Please ensure that if you are stuffing treat toys and freezing them for your pets to help keep them cool, dont forget to ensure there is a HOLE ALL OF THE WAY THROUGH IT.
WHY YOU MAY ASK ?
Toys such as Kongs have 2 holes in their toys for a reason - TO PREVENT SUCTION.
WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT ?
When your pet licks at the contents of the toy or squeezes it in its mouth, their tongue can get SUCKED into the hole and get STUCK on the dogs tongue and cause horrific injuries to the point where the animal can actually die.
Having 2 HOLES in the toy PREVENTS this from happening.
So if you STUFF your toys with treats, push a straw through it to ensure the 2 HOLES ARE NOT BLOCKED.
If you are going to FREEZE the toy, do so with the straw in place and then REMOVE the straw before giving it to your pet.
So when buying your pet toys, please keep this in mind.
Hope this little tip helps you keep your animals safe!
