🎆🐾 FIREWORKS SEASON IS APPROACHING – LET’S HELP OUR PETS FEEL SAFE! 🐾🎆

Here at Medivet Bushey Heath, we know that fireworks season can be a worrying time for many pets and their owners. ❤️

With a little preparation, there are lots of things you can do to help your dog feel safer and more settled as we approach fireworks season.

🐕 Enjoy a lovely daytime walk!

Where possible, plan a nice, enriching walk during daylight hours, giving your dog plenty of opportunities to sniff, explore and enjoy their surroundings. A peaceful walk can provide valuable mental stimulation and help them settle at home later in the day.

⚠️ Please keep your dogs on lead!

Unexpected fireworks can startle even the most confident dogs, causing them to panic and run. Keep your dog securely on lead, even if they usually have excellent recall. A well-fitted harness alongside a collar and lead can provide extra security.

🏡 Create a safe space at home.

Prepare a cosy, quiet area where your pet can retreat if they feel frightened. Close windows and curtains, and put the TV or some calming music on to help mask the sounds of fireworks.

🦴 Keep them happily occupied.

Offer favourite toys, food puzzles, lick mats or stuffed Kongs if your dog is comfortable using them. These can provide enrichment and a welcome distraction.

❤️ Comfort them when they need you.

If your dog seeks reassurance, offer calm affection and support. You won’t reinforce their fear by comforting them. Allow them to choose whether they want cuddles or a quiet place to hide, and never force them to face their fears.

🎇 Plan ahead if your pet struggles with fireworks.

If your pet has shown signs of fear or anxiety in previous years, please don’t wait until the fireworks start to seek help.

If you have any concerns about how your pet may cope with fireworks, please contact us here at Medivet Bushey Heath. Our friendly practice team can help guide you on the next steps, and our veterinary team can discuss suitable options to support your pet. It’s always best to seek advice early rather than wait until your pet is distressed.

🐾 Check their microchip details.

Make sure your pet’s microchip details are up to date and their ID tag is secure. Sadly, frightened pets can sometimes escape, so taking these precautions is especially important.

💕 Remember, every pet is different. Some may barely notice the bangs, while others can find this time of year extremely frightening. Patience, preparation and understanding can make a real difference.

From all of us here at Medivet Bushey Heath, we wish you and your four-legged family members a safe and settled fireworks season. 🐶🐱❤️

📍 We’re here to help! If you have any questions or concerns about your pet’s wellbeing during fireworks season, please get in touch with our practice team.
