🎆 Top 5 Tips to Keep Pets Safe This Fourth of July 🎆

Fireworks and festivities can be stressful—and even dangerous—for our furry companions. Here’s how you can help keep them safe:

🍗No Bones or BBQ Scraps – Keep party food away from pets. Cooked bones and greasy leftovers can cause serious illness including blockages and pancreatitis.

🏠Keep Pets Indoors – Fireworks can cause panic. A secure, quiet space indoors is the safest place for them.

🎞Provide Distractions – Calming music or movies, favorite toys, or enrichment activities can help soothe anxiety.

💊Prep Medications Early – If your pet takes calming medication, administer it before fireworks begin for best results.

⏱Double-Check IDs & Microchips – In case your pet does get loose, make sure their identification is up to date.

From all of us at Bend Animal Emergency, we wish you a safe and fun holiday!

🐾 We’re open 24/7, every day—including the 4th—for all your pet emergency needs.

🔴 EMERGENCY IS OUR SPECIALTY.
We’re here when your pet needs us most.

Warm Weather = Real Danger for Pets! ⚠️

With Central Oregon heating up, it’s crucial to remember how quickly mild temps can turn deadly for our furry friends. In just 10 minutes, the inside of a car can spike by 20°F—even with the windows cracked. That means an 80° day outside can hit over 100° inside a car in minutes. 🤒

Heatstroke in pets can happen FAST.
Here’s what to watch for:
- Excessive panting
- Lethargy or confusion
- Vomiting or drooling
- Collapse or seizures

Don’t risk it:
✅ Never leave pets in parked cars—not even for a few minutes
✅ Limit exercise during peak heat hours (10am–4pm)
✅ Always provide shade + fresh water
✅ Walk pets on grass, not hot pavement

If you suspect heatstroke, treat it as an emergency!

We are here for you 24/7, 365 days a year at Bend Animal Emergency & Specialty Center.

Let’s keep Central Oregon’s pets cool, safe, and healthy this summer! 💙🐾
