If you are taking your pup along with you today to celebrate Memorial Day, follow the tips shared by Blue Pearl below to help keep them safe! Have fun!! https://www.facebook.com/share/p/18ZBS4PCWh/?mibextid=wwXIfr

With Memorial Day weekend just around the corner, many plans are moving outdoors. While you look forward to firing up the grill and gathering with friends, the shift to warm weather and backyard cookouts brings a few unique hazards for our pets.

To help keep pets safe, keep a close eye on these areas:
🌭 Food & Drink: It’s tempting to share a plate, but barbecue favorites can be highly dangerous for pets. Keep pets completely away from bones, fatty meats, onions, grapes, raisins, chocolate, and alcohol. Also, double-check labels for xylitol (a common artificial sweetener), which is highly toxic to dogs.

☀️ Outdoor Temps: Rising temperatures can quickly lead to overheating or heat stroke - especially for active dogs or those not yet acclimated to the seasonal shift. Ensure your pets always have access to fresh water and plenty of shade.

🐾 Quick Tip on Sunscreen: Human sunscreen and insect repellent can be toxic if ingested by pets. Avoid using them directly around pets and ensure they are not ingesting any. Look for products specifically formulated and labeled as pet-safe whenever possible.

Save these tips for the weekend and stay tuned for more pet safety reminders!
