In this video, I highlight the potential danger that Gorilla Glue, if swallowed, can cause your dog.
The timelapse video segment films what happens when the glue is in contact with liquids, in this case a bowl of water, but could easily be the inside of your pet’s stomach.
After about 45 minutes, the glue triples in size and becomes hardened. If this happened to your pet, it would require emergency surgery. You can prevent such an emergency to your puppy or other pet by keeping these glues in hard-to-access places away from your pet.
Please share this important video around, and encourage your friends, family, and followers to do the same. All pet owners, as well as all parents of small children, truly need to see this.
Thank you.
Jason

The IndieGoGo campaign to raise funds for the publishing of my two pet safety tip books is nearing its end.

We’re getting close, but I’d truly appreciate it if you would help ensure the success of this campaign by clicking the picture above to donate and share. Thank you all for following along and for your support and encouragement as I try to make the world a better and safer place for all cats and dogs!

Easter is just around the corner and, if you’ve got pets, there are a few extra things you might want to think about if you want to keep them happy, healthy, and safe as you prepare to host the family for dinner and the traditional egg hunt.
Beautiful can prove deadly
