Shredders dangerous to pets

Hi
Just wanted to repost this as this info was lost.
Many pets and small children have been seriously injured by paper shredders.
If you have a shredder keep in unplugged.

Yep, they sure are.......my Yorkies chewed that plug completely in half.

Thank goodness it WAS unplugged!!

Hi Cal Gal
Glad your yorkie was okay.
One of the other problems is that the dogs get their tongues caught in the actual shredding area.
Scary thought.
