Happy Holidays from the Ziggy and the ZigZag Family!
Here are some tips to keep your pets safe this holiday season:
1. Keep Holiday Treats Out of Reach: Chocolate, raisins, and certain spices can be toxic to dogs. Keep them safely away from your furry friends! ๐๐พ
2. Decorate Safely: Tinsel, ornaments, and lights can be dangerous if chewed or ingested. Choose pet-friendly decorations this season! ๐งธโจ
3. Watch the Festive Plants: Mistletoe, poinsettias, and holly can be harmful to dogs. Make sure theyโre out of pawsโ reach! ๐ฟ๐ซ
4. Stay Cozy, Not Overheated: Avoid leaving your dog in a car or near open flames, like candles or fireplaces, during the winter festivities. ๐ฅ๐
5. Adjust Their Routine: Holidays can be busy, but donโt forget your dogโs daily walks, feeding, and exercise. Routine is key! ๐โจ
6. Keep Guests and Gifts Safe: Be mindful of doorways and unfamiliar guests. Some dogs may get anxious with the hustle and bustle of the holidays. ๐๐
7. Holiday Hazards to Watch Out For: Strings, ribbons, and wrapping paper are fun, but can be dangerous if chewed or ingested. Keep the gifts pet-friendly! ๐๐ถ
8. Mind the Noise: Fireworks, parties, and loud noises can spook some dogs. Provide a quiet space for your pup to relax. ๐๐
9. Traveling? Plan Ahead: If youโre traveling with your dog, pack their essentials and check out pet-friendly accommodations in advance. โ๏ธ๐
10. Winter Walks: Protect your dogโs paws from salt, ice, and snow by wiping them off after walks. Stay warm and safe out there! โ๏ธ๐ฃ
Stay safe, keep your dog comfy, and enjoy the holidays together! ๐๐พ
