Hiii my dog is 2 yrs old and he was playing with hair clipper and broke it while chewing. Since clipper has metal inside it should I be worried about tetanus??

Hello Jaya. Any visible wound on the surface of the body ? Tetanus is caused by a bacteria called Clostridium tetani, which is commonly present in soil and gets into the body through deep open wounds. Its a myth that tetanus is transmitted through any sort of metals, especially the rusted ones. If one gets a wound through a sharp metal and comes in contact with the bacteria present in soil, can get a disease. Horses & humans are more sensitive although dogs & cats are relatively more resistant to tetanus

Eat or Pass? 1. Human Biscuits Very often we see people feeding Parle-G and other human biscuits to street dogs and their pet dogs. But is that recommended? NO. It is not recommended to feed human biscuits to dogs and if you are feeding, you need to check for 3 ingredients- -Sugar: Not good for their health -Xylitol: Alternative of sugar, poisonous for dogs -Gluten: Harmful for their health in long run
