Fourth of July Pet Safety Tips 🐾
Fireworks can be stressful for pets. Help keep them safe with these simple reminders:
• Take your dogs for a walk before it gets dark and always keep them on a leash, even if they normally have excellent recall.
• Turn on the TV, a fan, or calming music to help drown out the sound of fireworks.
• If your pet has prescribed anxiety medication, give it before the fireworks begin so it has time to take effect.
• Keep pets safely indoors while fireworks are going off, and make sure doors, windows, and gates are secure.
• Double-check that your pet is wearing a collar with current ID tags and that their microchip information is up to date.
• Keep pets away from alcohol, chocolate, grapes, onions, cooked bones, and other holiday foods that can be harmful or toxic.
Wishing you and your furry family members a safe and happy Fourth of July! ❤️🤍💙
