As its springtime , often meaning gardening time too , I thought it worth posting about potential risks of using Cocoa Mulch in areas available to our dogs . Dogs are drawn to the smell of the mulch which is akin to the smell of chocolate , this mulch contains Theobromine which , at least can cause upset tums or at worst much more serious problems if enough is eaten , best err to caution .
Re: Cocoa Mulch Thanks Kate, theres some more unusual stuff out there thats toxic isnt there. Worth mentioning that electronic cigarettes, the nicotine part is highly toxic and will kill a dog, also some types of artificial sweetner, sorry cant remember which one it is. Maggie xx
Re: Cocoa Shell Mulch Thanks Kate. Will look for other types of mulch. I'm always careful with weedkiller as well. Make sure megs stays away until its dry.
