PAWS FOR PESTICIDES

This is my friend Charlie Hunt (his momma is Bonnie). Charlie accidentally walked on a lawn that had been treated with chemicals. It burned the pads on his paws. The vet wanted to put him on steroids and give him antibiotics, but his momma decided to wash his paws with warm salt water and buy him some little kid's cotton socks to wear.
Charlie is doing much better, but I just want everybody to be aware that pesticides and chemicals put on grass can really hurt your pet.
There are MUCH better, more natural alternatives to keeping your lawn beautiful and pest free. Please consider your pet AND the environment when using anything on your lawn.
Leo says, "THANKS!"
