Rachel had to spend thousands of pounds of her dog after he swallowed chocolate that was left out
A Leeds woman is warning pet owners about the danger of chocolate at Christmas after her dog's Quality Street disaster.
Rachel spent £1,000 on vet bills to help her poorly dog. She added: "I was so worried about her, and I felt so guilty I didn’t spot her eat the chocolate, it’s definitely taught me a lesson to keep any harmful foods far out of reach from now on. We ended up cancelling our plans to go to the panto so I could stay in and make sure her condition improved, swapping the theatre for snuggles on the sofa.
TrustedHousesitters has worked with vets and animal experts to reveal the biggest dangers pets can face at Christmas, as well as what people can do to avoid them:One of the main dangers at Christmas is the tree – dogs, cats and other small animals can be tempted to climb the tree or jump up to play with hanging decorations.
"This happens when one end of the string wraps around the base of the tongue or anchors itself in the stomach, and the rest moves into the intestines. Since it’s anchored at one end, it cannot be passed and will cause severe damage to your pet’s intestines. Linear foreign body is a life-threatening condition that needs immediate surgical intervention.”
