Lead exposure varies depending on your surroundings. If you live in an area with older homes, even if you've proactively addressed lead paint on your own property, peeling paint on neighborhood homes or fences can contaminate soil or nearby water sources. Your dog can inadvertently consume lead from paint while rooting around in the grass or drinking from a puddle. Lead dust can stick to paws, and it can be ingested by licking.
