While we love summer celebrations, the loud fireworks and busy family parties can be terrifying for our pets. Here is the Pidder Padder Paws quick guide to keeping your pet calm this holiday season.
🏃♂️ Tire 'em out early: Long walks and heavy playtime before the sun goes down can drastically lower nighttime stress.
🏡 Create a safe space: Set up a cozy interior room or crate. Close the windows and curtains to block out flashing lights and muffled sounds.
🎶 Mask the noise: Turn on the TV, a loud fan, or play white noise to buffer the sudden firework bangs.
🍫 High-value distractions: Keep them busy with a frozen lick mat, a peanut-butter-stuffed KONG, or a long-lasting chew.
⚠️ Reminder: More dogs go missing during fireworks than any other time of year. Double-check that collars are on and microchips are up to date!
