hi everybody and welcome back to relax my dog, today me and Milo here are going
to be talking about a really important topic of dogs
and Christmas and the things you guys need to be aware of that
your dog could be in danger during Christmas, eating things or
messing about with things that are going to be up in your house so yeah let's just
jump straight in, now before we do begin definitely do go down below to the
comments and let me know what you guys do to celebrate Christmas if you do
celebrate Christmas, obviously there's so many different celebrations that go on around
this time of year, you can definitely put this video towards your different
celebrations that you're going to be having in your household, but today
we're gonna be talking about Christmas and how that might affect your dog so
definitely do let us know down below what you guys do for Christmas
do you go out see family, do you take your dog with you, what do you get your
dog for Christmas, let me know down below. the first thing to think about
when you are setting up your Christmas decorations is plants, plants can be very
very dangerous for your dog especially if they are indoors because I feel like
dogs have this sort of initiative and they want to play with these plants, they
want to bite them and to explore them and especially if it is a new thing in
your house your dog will want to explore it, will want to play with it etc.
so you definitely do need to be aware of that, the first thing is a
Christmas tree, now a Christmas tree can be extremely dangerous for your dog
if you get a real Christmas tree they can have those little pine needles and if your
dog swallows them it can actually be very very painful and be very dangerous for
your dog too so definitely do be aware of that if you do like to get a real
tree- what are you doing? Come here, what are you doing?
and obviously as well as the pines and the needles you also need to be aware of
the tree water that the tree obviously needs to sit in, I've never actually had
a real tree but I assume they have some sort of water to sit in and that can be
very very dangerous for your dog as well because it can have all sorts of
infectious bacteria in there which you don't really want your dog to drink, now
as well as Christmas trees you're going to be having loads and loads of different
Christmas plants in your household including holly leaves, berries and that
sort of thing, as well as rosemary and also mistletoe as well might be a
part of your Christmas decorations if you think about it you don't really want
your dog to be swallowing berries or any sort of plastic if you have plastic plants
it can also be quite dangerous because it can get lodged in their throat etc
so it's just something to be aware of, now as well as trees and also plants
your dog may also want to eat the candy as well, all the sweets that you're going
to have on decoration, in our house we have our little pots of Heroes and
little boxes of chocolates all around and we have to be very careful that Milo
doesn't decide to jump up and eat them because that can be very dangerous for
your dog, so make sure that if you do have this sort of candy or sweets out
for decoration or out for your dog to be able to reach, definitely do make sure you
are keeping an eye on them and if you are out of the room make sure you're putting it
out of reach for them so they can't eat them, now the next one is a tablecloth
obviously a lot of tablecloths have sort of dangly bits at the bottom and your
dog, especially if they're a puppy they may want to play with them and they may pull
things and it could completely ruin your whole table decoration as well as having
things that your dog shouldn't be eating or having hold of so definitely
do make sure that if you do have a table cover that has dangly bits, that you are with them
all the time or you're just sort of hooking them
underneath so that your dog cannot get access to them, now as well as plants you
may want to put up tinsel and other decorations as well around your
house to make it look very very Christmassy but do remember that tinsel
can be very very dangerous for your dog if they do decide to swallow the tinsel
because it can be very very attractive for them to do so
anything that sparkly, anything that they sort of feel is like a toy for them they
may want to start playing with, but do remember that tinsel can actually
be very very dangerous if they swallow it, it can get lodged in their throats and it
can also wrap around their tongue as well which can be an extremely bad
choking hazard so definitely do think about what you are going to be putting
up in your house and make sure it is out of reach from your dog or dogs, if you do
have snow globes in your house do remember that the water inside the snow
globe is actually poisonous to dogs as well so make sure they can't knock that
over and also remember that some tree decorations or just decorations in
general can have small parts to them that your dog can easily break off or
they can just break off by sort of you brushing past them and then if they land
on the floor your dog may decide to eat them and that can become a choking
hazard so definitely do be careful what decorations you are putting up and
make sure you're just keeping an eye on your dog around this time. Then obviously
around Christmas time you may have a lot of electronics or you might have the tree on and
you might have lights outside but do you remember that if your dog
decides to chew on any electrical wires it can again be very very dangerous
for them so if you do decide to put up any Christmas lights, definitely do
remember to not leave the wire sort of on the floor try and put them up
somewhere or hide them or take them down so your dog can't play with them or
definitely do it just keep an eye on them throughout this time and if you are
not in the room or you're not in the house definitely do unplug these
decorations, if your dog ever does it decide to chew on them it's not going to
be a harmful situation and remember as well that whenever you are out of the
house do put your dog in a room where there are no decorations because I'm
sure you guys don't want to come home to find that you either your decorations
have been completely ruined or that something has happened to your dog! And
