Dog-Safe House Cleaning Products
Take a look at those household cleaners under your sink and in your laundry room. Many of them list a plethora of toxic ingredients including petroleum distillates, mineral spirits, formaldehyde, and others that have been proven carcinogenic and mutagenetic.

Homemade cleaning products can keep your house perfectly clean for less money and at a lower cost to the health of your canine and human family.
