🎃🐾 Keep Your Pets Safe This Halloween! 🐾🎃

Halloween is full of fun and frights—but some spooky surprises can be tricky for our furry friends! Here are a few tips to keep your pets safe and stress-free this Halloween:

👻 Hide the Treats: Chocolate, xylitol, and candy wrappers can be toxic to pets. Keep all sweets out of reach!
🎭 Costume Comfort: If your pet’s wearing a costume, make sure it fits comfortably and doesn’t restrict movement, vision, or breathing.
🚪 Door Dashers: With frequent trick-or-treaters, keep pets in a quiet room away from the door to prevent escapes.
💡 Collars & Microchips: Make sure your pet’s collar has up-to-date ID tags and that their microchip info is current—just in case they slip out during the festivities.
🗑️ Trash Patrol: Candy wrappers, lollipop sticks, and glow sticks can be tempting but dangerous! Securely tie up and dispose of all Halloween trash where pets can’t reach it.
🕯️ Spooky Decor Safety: Curious paws and wagging tails can knock over candles or chew on decorations—keep things pet-proof!

Let’s make this Halloween safe, fun, and full of treats (for both you and your pet)! 🐶🐱🧡

💔 Looking for a Loving Home for Luke 🐾

We’re helping a client re-home her beloved 14-year-old Yorkie, Luke, due to her own health challenges. This has been an incredibly difficult decision, and we’re hoping to find a kind, compassionate person (or family) who can give Luke the love and care he deserves in his golden years.

🐶 Meet Luke:

-14 years old

-Fully vetted & up to date on all vaccines

-Sweet, loyal, and loves a cozy spot to nap

-Has some health issues that require regular care

-Needs monthly allergy injections and daily medications

Luke would do best in a quiet, low-stress home with someone who understands senior dog care and is willing to keep up with his medical needs.

If you or someone you know might be the right fit for Luke, please reach out. Let’s find this sweet boy a soft landing and a warm heart to call home. ❤️

📩 Message us for more details or to be put in touch with his current owner. Feel free to share!!
