Dogs Go Green

Living an environmentally-friendly lifestyle isn’t just for people — your dog can go green too. We’ve compiled some great tips to help your canine tread lighter on the planet.

1. Avoid dog foods that are full of processed ingredients and additives by buying natural, organic dog food made from raw and healthy ingredients. Because dogs are omnivores, there are also several vegetarian dog foods on the market that are just as healthy and delicious for your dog.
2. Use natural cleaning products as well when your pet makes a mess or has an “accident” in the house.
3. Try out a natural material dog bed made from soy or hemp.
4. Organic dog toys tend to be pricey, try reusing old items around the home that are no longer useful to you, but safe for Fido to chew on, such as old socks.
5. Look for alternatives to plastic bags for scooping on your dog walks
