If you haven’t heard anything outside just yet, we’re sure you will be soon! As the 4th of July holiday approaches we want to remind everyone about how keep your pets safe & comfortable during fireworks.
•Be sure to exercise your dogs earlier in the day to tire them out either with early morning walks or puzzle games to exhaust them mentally.
•Make sure dogs have a place to safely stay either in a kennel or small room.
•Block out fireworks sounds with other sounds like calming music or soothing sounds.
•Make sure your contact info is up to date on their collars or in connection with their microchips incase they accidentally get out of the house.
And for any dogs who get overly anxious during storms or fireworks, this is a good opportunity to reach out to set up a time to discuss that with one of our doctors who can help provide additional medical coping options. And if your pet has already been prescribed anything for this in the past, please call to get anything filled sooner than later!
We want everyone to have a safe & happy 4th of July holiday weekend coming up!
