Cookout Safety


Do you spend your summers cooking out on the grill? There’s nothing like family dining time out on the porch, but don’t forget that it’s not as safe for your pet as it is fun for your family. There are many potential dangers for pets in a grilling environment, especially because they will want to spend a lot of time right near the grill. A pet can grab a fallen piece of food and may swallow it whole from excitement, or a pet can be burned by a hot piece of food or coals falling on them. Remember that most of the foods we grill are on the list of foods that pets should NOT eat, including chicken with the bones in it. Do your pet a favor, and keep them inside the house until the grilling is over.
