Similarly, remember that the snacks enjoyed by your human friends should not be a treat for your pet. Any change of diet, even for one meal, may give your dog or cat severe digestive ailments. Avoid raisins, grapes, onions, chocolate and products with the sweetener xylitol.

Barely Used Pets (dog)
My name is River and I am quite the mix. I am a blend of boxer, pitbull, shih tzu and jack russell. I am only one year old and I weigh about 20 pounds. I have had all of my shots. I am spayed, house trained and I love to walk on a leash. I like kids and I get along well with other dogs. I am kind of scared of cats. Have you seen that big fluffy orange girl named Lollipop at the rescue? When she hisses, I am out of there! I am very quiet and rather shy so please give me a little time to warm up to you. I just need a chance to have a home of my own and someone to talk to. Oh yeah, this photo is my “serious” look. Let’s get the leash out and go for a long walk. Maybe you will find a little room in your heart and your home for me? I promise to be a good girl and I will be totally loyal. My adoption fee is $150 and that includes my Ohio dog license.
