Toxins at Home: Hidden Threats to Your Pet’s Health, Safety, and Longevity Every Pet Parent Needs to Know

Your home might be putting your pet at risk—without you even realizing it.

In this episode of Unleashed Curiosity, Donie Yamamoto and Dr. Amber Da Silva, DVM reveal the hidden household toxins that quietly affect your dog or cat’s health, longevity, and daily comfort.

Because pets live closer to the ground, sniff everything, lick surfaces, and share our space, they’re exposed to chemicals designed for humans—not animals.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How common cleaning products (bleach, ammonia, fragrances) impact lungs, skin, hormones, and organs

• Why the word “fragrance” can hide thousands of undisclosed chemicals

• Which human foods are toxic to pets (including everyday dangers like xylitol and gum on sidewalks)

• The real risks of pest control products, batteries, glues, and toxic houseplants

• What to do immediately if your pet ingests something toxic

• Simple, practical ways to reduce toxic exposure at home starting today

No fear tactics.

No overwhelm.

Just clear, vet-approved guidance every pet parent should know.
