As a dog walker I am aware of what being “green” is all about and I really try to do my best to help out. Like most of you I have grandkids and I want them to be able to enjoy their life on this earth so there are a few things we can do to help out with the pets that we own as well as care for on a daily basis. Here are just a few things that we could do to help the earth as well as make us feel like we are doing our part.
- Use biodegradable bags when picking up your dogs poop.
- If you have a cat you can use the biodegradable bags to scoop the litter box- this can help a lot since we all know that cats LOVE a clean litter box!
- Use plant based litter or recycled/ biodegradable litter such as Sweat Scoop or News Best.
- Use chemical free cleaners when cleaning up after your pets or just in general.
- Clean up pet messes and those other messes with rags instead of paper towels – save a tree.
- Instead of throwing away those old unwanted towels, blankets, pet beds, bowls, leashes and collars find a local rescue or shelter and donate them. They would appreciate the thought and they would get another life of use. (Not to mention that feel good feeling again!)
- AND while your there adopt a pet, they can make as good a companion as the ones you might buy at a pet store or from a breeder.
Well, that’s it for now thanks for taking the time to check this out a see what you can do to help our earth. Remember think green!
