Pets Can be Safe and Happy this Independence Day
It's quickly coming up on the Fourth of July, a big celebration for Americans everywhere. It comes replete with fireworks and lots of sparklers, all of which look great but can really scare your pet. Make sure you keep Fido or Fifi safe this holiday week with a few quick tips from the San Fransico Examiner: . Do not take your pets along to the fireworks displays. . Bring your pets indoors before fireworks displays begin. . Make sure that your pets have access to their favorite “safe place” or find a quiet, comfortable, enclosed room where your pets can “hide” if they need to. . If you go to a fireworks display and leave your pets at home alone, leave the radio or TV set on so there is some “normal” background noise. . Do NOT take your pets along to the fireworks displays. (So important it needed to be said twice!) . Remember that you don’t have to be near the fireworks for the noise to scare your pets. . Don’t trust a fence to keep your pets in the yard while you’re gone. . Make sure all inside doors and windows are securely closed (not just the screen door). . Make sure your pets have a “safe place” in the house where they can be comfortable or hide. . If you’ll be gone during the fireworks, turn the TV or radio so they have normal background noise. . A pet with a microchip can be easily identified and returned to you if it ends up at a shelter. (A high percentage of the dogs that run away during the 4th of July have pulled out of their collars…leaving their identification behind.) . If your pet does run away, search your neighborhood. . Then, talk to your neighbors. . Also, Post signs. . Lastly, check with local shelters! . Keep it up! A frightened pet may go into hiding for several days…or run outside your neighborhood. Keep these tips in mind and hopefully you won't spend the 4th of July running around after your pet instead of running around with sparklers.
