Cold Weather
Kansas City’s average snowfall for each year is 18.2 inches. There are a lot of snowfall fans but not necessarily our four-legged friends. The snow-melting methods that are commonly used can be very harmful to our pets. Rock salt for example can shoot up sodium levels heavily in them, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, or potassium chloride can cause problems like skin irritation, eyes, nose, and lung burning, and nausea if ingested. Apart from this, there is always a chance of hypothermia. Severe cases can lead to cardiac and respiratory failure, brain damage, coma, and sometimes death.
