🎆 Happy Bonfire Night, folks! 🐾
Fireworks can be exciting for us, but those sudden bangs and flashes can leave some dogs feeling worried. A few little things can help make tonight easier for your furry friend:
🐾 Get their walk done while it’s still light, then head home before the fireworks begin.
🐾 Keep them busy indoors with a snuffle mat, puzzle feeder, favourite toy or a little training game.
🐾 Make them a cosy spot where they can hide away if they want to. Let them choose where they feel safest.
🐾 Shut the windows and curtains, and pop the telly or some familiar music on to soften the noise.
🐾 Give them a cuddle and some reassurance if they want it. They’re not being silly, and you won’t make them more frightened by comforting them.
🐾 Keep doors and gates secure, and take them out on a lead for toilet breaks after dark.
Every dog is different, so keep an eye on how yours is feeling. And remember, fireworks can carry on over the next few days, so keep those paws safe.
From all of us at The Pet Box, have a safe evening — give your furry friends an extra cuddle from us! ❤️
