Hi all!
This is THE most common day of the year for pets to run off and go missing!
Even if your dogs aren't typically runners, or scared of most fireworks, there is no way to predict how big, close or when they will go off near you over the weekend. So take them out on leash, don't leave them outside unsupervised (even in yards they've never escaped before). Id anticipate bigger shows than previous years due to it being America's 250th.
If able it doesn't hurt to keep a spare leash and treats on you incase you find a loose pup and be prepared to care for them a day or two until the shelter opens, vets can scan for a chip and/or you find their home
Have a safe and Happy 4th of July!!
