Safety First! As you prepare for the 4th of July weekend, please remember to keep the safety of your pets (and our wildlife neighbors) in mind.
Make sure your microchips are up to date. Fireworks cause fear and confusion for even the mildest mannered pets. Best to leave Fido at home where he is safe rather than taking him to the celebration.
Heat Advisories. This weekend, we will see record-setting temps. Pets who go outdoors should have this time limited with constant access to water. Also protect those paws when walking on concrete or asphalt. Find grass or invest in paw covers, if you can. No tethering. No pets in hot cars–ever!!!!
Don’t forget our wildlife friends. While we never recommend feeding them, we do encourage watering stations. Keep them clean, filled, and with ramps for smaller friends to exit and enter.
Have a safe and wonderful Independence Day holiday weekend!
