Lost Pet Prevention Month, observed every July, is a vital initiative dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of keeping our beloved pets safe and secure.

During this month, pet owners are encouraged to take proactive measures to prevent their furry friends from going missing. This includes ensuring pets have proper identification, such as microchips and ID tags, securing yards and homes to prevent escapes, and being mindful during potentially stressful events like fireworks or storms.

Additionally, Lost Pet Prevention Month emphasizes the importance of training pets to respond to commands and understanding their behavior to anticipate potential escape situations. By taking these steps, pet owners can significantly reduce the risk of losing their pets and ensure their safety and well-being year-round.

Fireworks can be a source of stress and anxiety for many pets, but with some preparation, you can help make the experience more comfortable for them.

🐾Start by creating a safe and cozy environment indoors where your pet can retreat. This could be a quiet room with their favorite bed or blanket, away from windows to minimize exposure to noise and flashing lights. Playing calming music or white noise can also help drown out the sound of fireworks.
🐾If possible, walk your dog earlier in the day to avoid outdoor exposure during fireworks displays.
🐾Additionally, ensure your pet is microchipped and wearing a collar with an ID tag, just in case they manage to escape in fear.
🐾Consider using anxiety-reducing aids, such as pheromone diffusers or pressure wraps like ThunderShirts, and consult your veterinarian for advice on anxiety medications if needed.
🐾Most importantly, remain calm and provide affection and reassurance, as your pet will look to you for comfort.
