Traps can be a lethal danger to dogs
Snares, foothold traps, and body-gripping traps can cause serious injury to your pet or may even kill them. Hence, it is necessary to avoid such traps as much as possible, according to Montana Outdoors.
Make sure your dog stays near you. This decreases their chances of getting stuck in a trap or snare. However, even if a trap catches them, you can quickly free them. Most dogs caught in these traps are ones allowed to roam unsupervised off-leash. Some wide-ranging bird-hunting dogs also get trapped as they are often out of sight of their owners.
If you have concerns about traps or snares in areas where you hunt, hike, or cross-country ski, it’s advisable to keep your dog on a leash or at least within sight.
