With Independence Day being only 7 days away, have you started preparing ? We thought we’d inspire you with some pictures of dogs all glammed up for the big day, as well as some tips to keep your best friends safe and sound amongst all the people, BBQs and fireworks 🙂
Let us know your personal tips for the 4th of July and share with us your pup’s past outfits of choice as a comment below!
It’s that time of year again. Bikini season has ended, and sweaters and coats are starting to be all the craze again. What does this mean in terms of our daily diet? Cookies, Chocolate & Candy are making their way back into our grocery carts!
Here at Bionic we LOVE when Halloween rolls around because it means our co-worker Gary will be breaking out daily portions of cookies and candy for the whole office. BUT while we’re busy stuffing our faces and getting chocolate on our keyboards, we must not forget to have an eye out for our special pups!
So I’ve set my delicious Snicker Bar down to tell you some tips about keeping your canine safe this holiday season.
  #1 NO CHOCOLATE! ZERO IS YOUR HERO!
-Chocolate and cocoa possess the chemical, theobromide, which is highly toxic to most dogs’ heart, lungs, kidney and central nervous system
.
-Pure Baking chocolate is amongst the worst kind that can be consumed, but products made of milk chocolate require a much higher quantity to be consumed to cause harm.
Ex. 20 pound pup could be poisoned after 2 ounces of baking chocolate, but the same dog would need to consume nearly 20 ounces of milk chocolate to be poisoned.
-Signs your dog may have snagged some of your treats and been poisoned include- unorthodox excitement, tremors, seizures, diarrhea, abnormal heart reate/rhythm, vomiting, coma, drunken gait and/or hyperthermia.
