Milestone Veterinary Hospital

Sticks may seem harmless, but they can actually pose a risk to dogs. 🐶🪵Chewing on sticks can lead to splinters in the mouth, injuries to the gums, choking, and even pieces getting stuck in the throat or digestive tract. Some dogs may also injure their teeth from biting down on hard wood. If your dog loves to chew or carry sticks outside, it’s a good idea to redirect them to safer alternatives like durable chew toys or pet-safe fetch toys.

If your pet has trouble chewing, is pawing at the mouth, drooling more than usual, or seems painful after playing with a stick, it’s best to have them checked. Call 864-877-7387 if you’re concerned.

Thank you to the fallen heroes who gave their lives, and to the families who carry their memory every day. We honor you with deep respect. 🙏
