Fourth of July Safety
Jun 29th, 2007 by Laura
The July 4th holiday is a day for relaxation, fun and family. But, for our pets it can be a day filled with stress due to the fireworks. Here are a few tips to keep your pet safe and calm.
1. If outdoors with your pet, do not let it off leash even if it normally is obedient. The noise
can cause your pet to run off.
2. When indoors, close windows,turn on a/c or a fan and some music to drown out the noise.
3. If your pet becomes extremely nervous, mild sedatives can be prescribed to provide comfort.
Remember our pets hearing is much more sensitive than ours! With a little extra effort, we can make our pets comfortable during this holiday.
Have a safe and happy July 4th!!!
