This is such a great idea. Some people are still unaware that certain foods are toxic to dogs and cats, an many are unaware of the dangers of Lilies, for cats.
One thing that does worry me here....I see people tie up their dogs outside the supermarket while they go shopping. Most times the dogs are fine but it is so dangerous. Anyone could steal their dog! A couple of weeks ago I noticed a dog had been tied up outside a store for a very long time. It looked well nourished, clean and wore a good quality harness, so it seemed 'looked after'.
I went in and called the manager. She also said she had seen the dog there for at least 45 minutes. I wondered if it had been dumped. The security guard also told me he'd seen that dog, and he guessed for an hour or more. I waited with it, while they paged inside the store. The security guard and I were about to take it to the vet, just down the road, to check for microchip etc.....when the manager said the dog's caretakers were coming. They had been shopping for an hour and left their dog outside all alone!!
Having a dog stolen is one of the most awful heartbreaking things that can happen. And easily preventable in most cases.
