Pet Safety and Protection

There​'s nothing you wouldn't do to keep your pet safe and protected. At Elite Paws Pet Care, safety is of the upmost importance. Ensuring our most valuable assets are happy, healthy and well cared for is what we live for.

​

Luckily, in today's day and age, we have an abundance of resources and options to help us. From safety harnesses and leashes to night visibility, GPS trackers to natural flea and tick repellants, we are spoiled for choice. Knowing that not every item is created equally or worth the price, we carefully evaluate everything. It's also important to check items regularly for wear and tear and replace damaged items immediately.

Here are some of the things we look out for:

​

• Proper fit and comfort: practice the two-finger rule when fitting collars and ensure harnesses do not impede or restrict movement 

• High-quality and durable materials, including fabric and hardware

• Easily cleaned, such as machine-washable fabrics or wipe-clean materials to keep gear hygienic

• Non-toxic and safe construction: ensure materials are free of small, swallowable parts, loose threads, or toxic dyes

• Visible at night: if you regularly take your dog out for walks at night, ensure you are both wearing reflective clothing and gear as well as using lights for easier visibility

• Backed by warranties: gear and accessories can be expensive; ensure your purchased come with a trusted guarantee and warranty
