SSPDaily has revealed some life hacks that will help maintain the health and well-being of dogs while walking on city sidewalks.
Use a muzzle or leash
To protect your dog from possible poisoning on the street, it is very important to use a leash or muzzle. This way, your pet will not be able to ingest harmful substances while exploring the environment. By keeping your dog close to you and under control, you greatly reduce the risk of him coming into contact with poisonous products that can be harmful to his health.
Teaching commands
Teach your dog to respond to commands such as "fetch" or "drop" to discourage him from eating dangerous items outside. Regularly practicing and reinforcing these commands will allow you to redirect your dog's attention away from potential dangers. By teaching these important skills, you reduce the likelihood of your dog accidentally ingesting toxic substances while out and about, ensuring their well-being.
Stay vigilant
Be alert to areas where toxic substances may be present, such as trash cans or areas that have been treated with pesticides.
