1. Be a considered canine consumer.
Ultimately a dog just wants somewhere warm to sleep, a full tummy and someone to love them, but of course there are things they need and then there’s the things we like to treat them with. However, the more you buy, the bigger the environmental impact so whether it s a new bed, a coat for the cold or treats, put a little thought into it.
Buy the best quality you can afford for longevity, consider packaging and the product’s composition, buy local where possible and look for brands with ethical/sustainable practices. In just a few searches you can find vegan faux leather collars and leads, toys made from natural materials like Hemp, brands that will exchange your dog’s outgrown collars for a gift voucher and even treat companies that donate treats to a rescue centre for every pack sold.
