Fireworks can be scary, here are some suggestions to help your pets through it:
- Make sure your dog is wearing current ID tags at all times.
- Do not leave pets unattended, even in a secure yard.
- Keep your dog indoors during fireworks.
- Confine them to a quiet room or provide access to a closet, bed, bathroom, or other safe place with plenty of artificial light to mask the flashes from fireworks.
- Playing music or turning on the TV can help to drown out the fireworks.
- Offer them a favorite treat, such as a peanut butter stuffed toy.
- Playing games or exercising can also help distract them from the noise.
- Should your dog get out, have clear, up to date photos of your pet.
