Choosing Safe Products For Your Dog Or Cat - August 14, 2008 -

In this time of pet food recalls, its important to choose safe products for your canine or feline baby. The dog, puppy and cat food that was tainted contained a chemical called melamine. Melamine is used in plastic countertops and fertilizers, but it was found in wheat gluten and rice protein made in China. Its not that buying pet products from overseas is bad, but there has to be vigilance on the part of the owner and quality control from the animal food manufacturer. Fortunately, items like dog apparel, carriers and collars have a much lower chance of being harmful, but a pet parent still needs to be careful.

There are many good, reputable companies, like Little Pampered Pets.com, that sell canine styles made in China. This is good for the consumer because the price is always much lower and the quality of the threads is the same. Any time you buy doggie or kitty clothing or accessories, closely inspect the items. If theres anything unsafe or unsatisfactory about them, return them and alert the pet store. Most shops that sell animal products are unaware of problems until owners point them out. Size issues are a common problem when it comes to apparel and collars. Any good store will gladly exchange items for you until you are satisfied. Sometimes, knitted or crocheted items like sweaters will have flaws in their design, so inspect everything carefully. Seasonal coats and jackets can vary in quality, too. Custom-made embroidery or stuffing in the apparel gives opportunity for mistakes, so make sure it doesnt unravel.
