As winter blankets our neighborhoods with snow and ice, ensuring the safety of our furry friends becomes a top priority. Traditional deicers, while effective at melting ice, often contain chemicals that can be harmful to pets. These chemicals can cause skin irritation, gastrointestinal upset, and even more severe health issues if ingested. Fortunately, several pet-safe alternatives are available to keep your driveways and sidewalks clear without putting your beloved companions at risk.
