Do Not Give Dogs Corn on the Cobs<\/h4>\n<p>Corn on the cob is tasty! So tasty that dogs may even scavenge them off plates or out of the trash. During the summer, corn cobs are one of the most common causes of GI obstructions that we see in our ER. A GI obstruction can lead to endoscopy or even surgery to remove the cob from the stomach and intestines. So please save yourself an expensive vet bill and make sure all corn cobs are properly disposed of in the trash. We recommend throwing the bag into your large trash bin right away just to be sure your dog doesn\u2019t break open the trash can lid!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5247 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Pieces-of-Corn-on-X-Ray.-4.png\" alt=\"x-ray, corn on the cob, brush wires, grilling, grilling safety, grilling tips, pet owners, pet safety, grilling safety for dog owners, grilling safety for pet owners, summer grilling, veterinary medicine, emergency vet, Animal Emergency &amp; Referral Center of Minnesota\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Pieces-of-Corn-on-X-Ray.-4.png 800w, https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Pieces-of-Corn-on-X-Ray.-4-768x384.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><strong>2. Watch Out for Stray Grill Brush Wires<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Be careful while cleaning your grill! Veterinarians are seeing more and more radiographs that have small wires in the abdomen. These wires may migrate out of the stomach and cause some serious damage. There\u2019s building evidence that these wires are the tiny wires in grill brushes that come loose as you\u2019re cleaning.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5241 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/3.png\" alt=\"cleaning grill, grill brush, grilling, grilling safety, grilling tips, pet owners, pet safety, grilling safety for dog owners, grilling safety for pet owners, summer grilling, veterinary medicine, emergency vet, Animal Emergency &amp; Referral Center of Minnesota\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/3.png 800w, https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/3-768x384.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><strong>3. Clean Up Grease Spills<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Speaking of cleaning, watch out for tasty grease spills or drips on the ground. Those delicious juices and marinades can even make sand, gravel, and wood chips seem tasty and tempting. If your dog swallows any of these, they can cause an upset tummy, sand impaction (like a horse!), or an obstruction.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5243 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Pieces-of-Corn-on-X-Ray.-2.png\" alt=\"round bone, dog, jaw, grilling, grilling safety, grilling tips, pet owners, pet safety, grilling safety for dog owners, grilling safety for pet owners, summer grilling, veterinary medicine, emergency vet, Animal Emergency &amp; Referral Center of Minnesota\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Pieces-of-Corn-on-X-Ray.-2.png 800w, https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Pieces-of-Corn-on-X-Ray.-2-768x384.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><strong>4. No Meat Bones for Dogs<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Do NOT give your dog scraps containing bones. Bones can break teeth, get stuck over the jaw, or tiny pieces may even get impacted in the colon after scraping all the way through the intestines. Ouch!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5239 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/5.png\" alt=\"beer, grilling, grilling safety, grilling tips, pet owners, pet safety, grilling safety for dog owners, grilling safety for pet owners, summer grilling, veterinary medicine, emergency vet, Animal Emergency &amp; Referral Center of Minnesota\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/5.png 800w, https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/5-768x384.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><strong>5. Don&#8217;t Leave Alcohol Unattended<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Who doesn\u2019t like to grill with a beer in hand? However, keep it in your hand. Dogs are often drawn to yeasty or fruity smelling alcohols. If your dog manages to drink an alcoholic beverage and gets drunk, it can lead to vomiting, aspiration pneumonia, or severe electrolyte shifts.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5238 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/4.png\" alt=\"bbq, grilling, grilling safety, grilling tips, pet owners, pet safety, grilling safety for dog owners, grilling safety for pet owners, summer grilling, veterinary medicine, emergency vet, Animal Emergency &amp; Referral Center of Minnesota\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/4.png 800w, https:\/\/www.aercmn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/4-768x384.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Please keep these safety tips in mind while grilling this summer!
