Pet Safety for 4th of July
June 30th, 2011
Our little dog Bomber didn't like all the lights and sounds when we took him to his first fireworks celebration about three years ago. Hence, he doesn't go with us anymore for these types of displays. The following are a few tips for pet safety with the 4th of July just around the corner...
1) Don't take your pet to a fireworks display. The sounds and lights will frighten him/her.
2) Never leave your pet unattended outside when fireworks displays are nearby. They could get hurt by falling spent fireworks.
3) If you go to a fireworks display, leave your pet at home in a safe area with the TV or radio on if possible.
4) If you have a trip planned without your pet, make sure you use a licensed, insured, and bonded pet sitter if you don't board your pet at a vet. Paw Minders Plus is licensed, insured, bonded, reliable and trustworthy!
5) Keep your vet's phone number handy in case of an emergency if your pet is outside near a fireworks display.
6) Enjoy the 4th of July, but mixing alcohol with pets at a fireworks show is nothing but a recipe for disaster.
