🎆🐾 TOP TIPS FOR DOGS ON FIREWORK NIGHT! 🐾🎆
Bonfire Night can be a scary time for our four-legged friends. Those loud bangs and flashing lights can be overwhelming, so here are some top tips to help keep your pups safe and comfortable this firework season! ❤️
🐶 1. Walk early – Take your dog for their walk before it gets dark and fireworks begin. Keep them on a lead, even if they’re usually great off-lead.
🏡 2. Create a safe space – Make a cosy den with blankets, their favourite toys and somewhere they feel safe to hide.
🎵 3. Mask the noise – Put the TV or calming music on to help drown out the sound of fireworks.
🪟 4. Close curtains and windows – This helps reduce noise and block out flashing lights.
❤️ 5. Stay calm and comfort them – If your dog wants cuddles, give them cuddles! Reassure them and let them know they’re safe.
🐾 6. Keep them indoors – Avoid taking your dog outside during fireworks. Make sure doors, windows and gates are secure to prevent any escape attempts.
🦴 7. Keep them distracted – Try a favourite chew, a lick mat or a puzzle toy to keep their minds occupied.
🆔 8. Check their ID – Make sure their microchip details are up to date, just in case they get frightened and escape.
💊 9. Speak to your vet – If your dog struggles with fireworks, your vet can advise on suitable calming support.
Remember, every dog is different. Some may want to hide away, while others may need a little extra reassurance. Let them do what makes them feel safest. 🐾
From all of us at PupGetaway, we hope you and your furry friends have a safe and happy Bonfire Night! ❤️
