Keep Your North Dakota Pets Away From These Plants This Summer

Summer is finally here again and if there's one thing we love to do in North Dakota, it's take advantage of this nice weather as much as we can. We want to get out, hit the hiking trails, visit local parks, and hang out on the sand bars. Of course, a summer day in the sun wouldn't be complete without our furry friends. If you plan to take your pets with you, there's something you should keep in mind.

Dangerous Plants for Plants

You might see your dog eating grass and think it's innocent enough. After all, we've been told that dogs and sometimes cats do this when their stomachs are upset and they are feeling sick. While that may be true, there are some plants you definitely want to keep your dogs away from. Yes, just as many plants are toxic for humans to eat, they are toxic to our pets too.

To help you identify which ones you need to keep your dogs away from, we've put together a list.

Those are just some of the plants you don't want your dogs to come in contact with this summer. Some of these might even be in your backyard. Just remember, your pets can look, but they certainly shouldn't touch or eat.

Stay safe, have fun, and enjoy the long-awaited summer months.
