In between, I raced around puppy proofing our home. Heres a list of some of the toxic/dangerous things around a typical home that are dangerous for dogs. Household management for such items is an immediate must! Dog training as a supplement to teach puppy to keep out of places such items might be found is an additional long-term goal.
Heres a list of some of the most important items on the puppy proofing hit-list:
- chocolate
- grapes/raisins
- macadamia nuts
- nicotine
- xylitol (artificial sweetener, found in many sugar-free gums)
- medications, including pain relievers for humans such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen
- caffeine
- electrical cords
- household cleaners
- insecticides/pest control products
- any small or sharp objects puppy might swallow
- certain plants including my favorite lilies and daffodils, although inside my home, there are no plants--pets fare much better in my care! (see a list of plants that are dangerous to dogs at: http://www.purina.com/dogs/Safety/PoisonousPlants.aspx )
