Is There Lead Paint In Pet Toys Made In China?
I never really considered what my dogs were putting in their mouths, until my mother pointed out that some of their toys are made in China. Am I worried over nothing? Should we be concerned about what kind of animal toys they are shipping over here? With the bad food and the lead paint, whats else are we not noticing?
Lead has been found in painted baby toys made in China so it is entirely possible that the paint on dogs toys is lead too. I would not give your dogs these toys, just to be safe.
If they have the nerve to use it in kid’s toys, and use whatever the heck it was they used in the pet food, used the antifreeze component in toothpaste, and the medicine-something with gylcerin I believe? Then I wouldn’t be at all surprised if pet toys were also tainted in some way. Just my opinion though….
Why risk it?
That is a great question to ask. I would be worried about it. If there are toys with lead in it for children then there just might be lead in the toys for animals. There is Formaldehyde in children’s pj’s from china and also today Mattel had a recall on their toys.
