Going green isn't just for humans. Producing an exceptional amount of waste and carbon emissions, your pet's carbon footprint matters too. As pet parents, we are responsible for making sustainable choices when looking after our pets.
One way to become a more eco-friendly dog owner is by being a conscious consumer and ensuring you buy products made from recycled materials or other sustainable values. This includes accessories, dog beds, leashes, collars, treats, bowls, and toys.
Read on to learn how to protect the planet by giving your pup natural pet toys that are phthalate-free, durable, and made from natural, recycled, or organic materials.
Pet Products and Our Planet
Your pooch loves to play - but at what cost does this come to our planet? Statistics estimate that nearly 634 million dog toys, such as tennis balls and nylon chew toys, end up in US landfills per year. This is equivalent to 40,500 tons of waste.
Think about it: how many toys do you buy per year only to have your dogs or cats rip them apart? We have to do better. One way to protect the environment is by choosing durable options that are free from toxic chemicals and made from eco-friendly materials such as recycled plastic, natural hemp, and natural rubber.
