🇺🇸❤️ Happy 4th of July! ❤️🇺🇸
Today is all about spending time with family, making memories, and celebrating, but it’s also one of the most important days of the year to keep our pups safe.
Did you know that the 4th of July is the #1 day for dogs to go missing in the United States? Fireworks can be extremely frightening for many dogs. The loud, unpredictable noises can trigger their fight-or-flight instinct, causing even the calmest pups to panic and bolt through doors, gates, or fences in an attempt to escape.
Here are a few ways to help keep your pup safe:
🐾 Keep them indoors before the fireworks begin.
🐾 Make sure all doors, gates, and windows are secure.
🐾 A crate or another safe, familiar space can be a great place for your pup to relax and feel protected.
🐾 Turn on the TV, music, or a fan to help drown out some of the fireworks.
🐾 Double-check that their ID tags and microchip information are up to date, just in case.
On a happier note, I also want to give a huge shoutout to all of the amazing pups I get to visit every day! 🥹❤️ They worked so hard on these adorable patriotic paw print art projects for their parents. These aren’t even all of them, I still have a few more talented artists to visit! 🇺🇸🐾
Wishing everyone a fun, safe, and happy Independence Day! ❤️🤍💙
