There are so many toys that are designed and marketed for pets, but do you know that even the safest-looking toy might put your pet’s health and safety at risk? Here are some tips to help you pick a safe toy for your pet:

• Check for pointy parts, such as those ‘fishing rod toys’ in which a toy dangles from a stick. Avoid letting your pet play with these toys if you’re around to supervise because the pointy end can injure the eye or any part of your pet’s body.
• Toys with small parts represent a choking risk
• Toys with strings can runt he risk of choking or strangling your pet. If swallowed, strings can cut your pet’s intestines open. 
• Steer clear of chew toys with painted designs. The pain could come off and could be ingested by your dog.
• If your pet has a stuffed toy, make sure to keep a close eye on the seams. Once the seams start to give way, dispose of it properly.

If your pet has swallowed a toy or bitten off a part of a toy, you should have him checked out by your Plano, TX vet to make sure that it is not lodged along any part of the digestive tract.
