🎃👻 Happy Howl-o-ween from Cedar Ridge Canine! 👻🎃
The ghosts are gathering, the goblins are roaming, and the trick-or-treaters are getting ready for a spooktacular night! While Halloween is fun for humans, it can sometimes be a little overwhelming for our four-legged friends.
👻🎃 Featured in our Halloween photo are a few of Kelly's own spooky goblins: Lou Lou, Reacher, and Tig, who were more than happy to help get everyone into the Halloween spirit! 🐾🧡
Here at Cedar Ridge Canine, we're busy preparing for all the Halloween excitement. To make sure our boarding guests stay safe, comfortable, and stress-free, all kennel dogs will be spending the evening safe and sound in the indoor arena, away from all the spooky sights, sounds, and excitement. 🐾
👻 A Few Tricks to Keep Your Pup Safe Tonight:
🎭 Costume Caution If your dog is dressing up for the festivities, make sure their costume fits comfortably, doesn't restrict movement, and has no loose pieces that could be chewed or swallowed.
🚪 Beware of the Great Escape With trick-or-treaters constantly coming and going, doors can be left open longer than usual. Keep collars secure and ID tags up to date just in case your curious pup decides to investigate.
🍫 Candy is for Humans Chocolate, xylitol, candy wrappers, and many Halloween treats can be dangerous for dogs. Keep the candy bowl out of paw's reach and remind children not to share their treats.
🎃 Light Up the Night If you're taking your dog along for some Halloween fun, consider reflective gear, a light-up collar, or a leash light to help drivers and pedestrians see them after dark.
👶 Watch for Costumed Strangers Remember that masks, costumes, and excited children can be confusing or scary for some dogs. Give nervous pups plenty of space and don't force interactions.
🔔 Doorbell Drama The constant ringing of doorbells and excited visitors can be stressful. Providing a quiet room, favorite toy, or cozy spot away from the front door can help your dog relax.
🐾 Keep Walks Positive If you're bringing your dog trick-or-treating, keep outings short and fun. Watch for dropped candy, decorations, and other hazards along the route.
Wishing everyone a safe, fun, and tail-wagging Halloween! We would love to see your pup's costume photos in the comments! 🧡🖤
🎃 Happy Halloween from all of us at Cedar Ridge Canine! 🎃
