How to Dog-Proof Your Home

Dog-proofing your home, yard, and garage is essential for keeping your Golden Retriever (and your house!) safe. Go through this list to create a pet-friendly place:



  • Keep medication bottles and cleaning supplies out of reach.



  • Don’t toss dental floss where your puppy can get into it.



  • Unplug electrical cords.



  • Beware of coins, socks, needles, and tinsel.



  • Watch out for stringy stuff like yarn and sewing gear.



  • Do not use roach or rodent poison or other pesticide in areas accessible to your puppy.



  • Keep the toilet lid down and never use toilet bowl cleaners.



  • Keep the diaper pail lid shut tight.



  • Hide all trash.



  • Hide your underwear.



  • Beware of certain chemicals, such as treated lumber products and flea control products.



  • Watch out for windows.



  • Hide the antifreeze.



  • Store weed killers, pesticides, and herbicides out of reach.



  • Ban cigarettes or at least keep those ashtrays clean.



  • Watch out for poisonous plants, such as Lily of the Valley, Oleander, Rhododendron, Japanese Yews, and Poinsettia.



  • Beware of herbicide hazards.
