HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!!

While every holiday is a great time to enjoy family and friends we do want to remind you to think of your pets as the festivities of July 4th can be upsetting to them.

  • Never use fireworks around pets! While exposure to lit fireworks can potentially result in severe burns and/or trauma to the face and paws of curious pets, even unused fireworks can pose a danger. Many types contain potentially toxic substances, including potassium nitrate, arsenic and other heavy metals.
  • Loud, crowded fireworks displays are no fun for pets, who can become frightened or disoriented by the sound. Please resist the urge to take them to Independence Day festivities, and opt instead to keep them safe from the noise in a quiet, sheltered and escape-proof area at home.

Enjoy the holiday and be sure your pets do too!
