Safety first, Bow Wow fam! 🐶⚠️
When it comes to playtime, choosing the right size ball for your dog is crucial. Here's how to tell if a ball is a choking hazard:

1️. If the ball fits neatly around your dog's mouth, it's likely too small and poses a choking risk.
2️. Opt for a ball that’s slightly too large for your dog to hold snugly in their mouth

Solution: Always have a variety of ball sizes on hand to ensure you can find the perfect fit for safe and fun playtime. Regularly check your dog's toys for wear and tear to prevent any accidents. Let’s keep our furry friends safe and happy!

Send us a photo to make sure your dog has the correct size ball!

Ever wondered why dogs eat dirt? 🐶 🌿

1️⃣ Nutritional deficiencies: Sometimes, pups munch on dirt to seek minerals they lack in their diet
2️⃣ Inflammatory bowel disease: Health issues can lead to unusual cravings, and dirt might be one of them
3️⃣ Learned behaviors: Some dogs pick it up from their furry friends or from their environment.
4️⃣ Behavioral reasons: Anxiety, boredom, or stress can drive your dog to chew on things, including dirt.
5️⃣ Parasites: Unwanted guests in your dog's tummy might make them eat dirt.

Keep an eye on your furry friend and consult your vet if this behaviour continues!
