I built a dog house yesterday for a new lab puppy we're getting. I bought pressure treated wood (both plywood and 2x4's), figuring it would be exposed to the elements.
I didn't consider that the dog could potentially chew on the wood until today. I was lucky in that the store had ACQ wood as opposed to CCA treated wood, as the arsenic in CCA treated wood is definitely harmful / fatal if ingested.
However, is my dog safe with the ACQ wood? It has no toxic chemicals, and is safer than CCA treated wood, but I can't find anything regarding
ingesting ACQ wood, such as lab testing, or stories with bad endings involving ACQ wood. What is everyone's opinion on using the ACQ wood for the dog house, and is there any testing done that I could look at to set my mind at ease?
Thanks everyone.
