Brrrrrrrrrrr! It’s getting COLD in Medina County!
As the temperatures drop, it's crucial for pet owners to ensure their furry companions stay safe and comfortable.
❄️Firstly, limit your pet's exposure to the cold by taking shorter walks and providing a cozy, warm place indoors for them to rest.
❄️Consider using pet-safe sweaters or jackets for dogs, especially those with short fur, to help maintain their body heat during outdoor activities.
❄️Additionally, keep an eye on your pet's paws; ice, snow, and salt can cause irritation or injury. Wipe their paws after walks and consider using pet-friendly booties for added protection.
❄️Make sure your pet has access to fresh water that isn’t frozen, and increase their food intake slightly, as they may need extra calories to maintain their body temperature.
By taking these precautions, you can ensure your pet stays healthy and happy throughout this freeze.
