Dog owners who plan to bring their pooch along with them to the beach this summer should be wary of the dangers that their four-legged pals could be in.
While playing on the beach, many dogs may get sand in their mouths, whether its on purpose or accidentally, but if ingested, the sand could block up in the intestines, called sand impaction, leading to severe health problems, veterinarian Laura Plyforth says.
Dogs can accidentally ingest sand at the beach, which can cause blockage in the intestines called sand impaction.
Some dangers include swimming and toys that could absorb sand and salt water that the dog can accidentally ingest.Humans and dogs share similar hazards on the beach like sunburn, dehydration, and walking on hot sand, so owners should always make sure there is a shady spot set-up for their dogs whether it’s under a table, in a well-ventilated tent or under a tree.
