We are asking the government to pass a law making it mandatory that all pet toys have labels if they contain objects that can be swallowed. And that these objects contain radiopaque content that makes them visible to x-rays. Without this, pets can be die or require extensive and expensive surgery.
Why is this important?
Surgeons cannot see the objects swallowed by pets because they are invisible to even x-rays. Thus the animals must undergo a bowel surgery as the surgeon searches for the object. Our class is sponsoring this. For one dog alone, it costs over $6000 to save its life. It would cost companies nothing.
