Day 8- Ornaments

Tree ornaments seem to be a great game for our dogs, they are attracted to them simply because we don't want them to be and that makes it fun! However, these ornaments if swallowed can lead to blockages within the digestive system and can require surgical removal! Or if your dog is more destructive then they might break the ornament and they dont always break cleanly leading to jagged edges that could puncture the digestive tract.

To prevent this either teach your dog to be calm around the tree, have some toys and games they can be distracted by, keep any ornaments higher on the tree than your dog can reach or simply block access to the tree itself.
