It's going to be another scorcher today! You can help your pets beat the heat by ensuring they have plenty of fresh water, and a cool place to relax. Dogs can be walked in the morning and evening when temperatures are cooler. And remember, no pets in locked vehicles! We hope you and your fur babies stay cool today.

Lest We Forget

10/31/2022

Happy "Howl"-Oween! As we gear up for the spookiest night of the year, here are some safety tips to help keep our pets safe:
Keep treats stashed away: Halloween chocolate and candy are toxic to pets.

Secure decorations: Pets may be tempted to chew on wires and tinsel, and nibble at pumpkins and corn.

Ensure costumes are comfy: If your pet is used to wearing a costume, make sure it is not too tight and allows for free movement and easy breathing. Avoid costumes with small pieces that can be chewed off.

Provide a safe, quiet space away from the front door: Some pets get stressed from the constant ringing of the doorbell. Provide a comfy spot for them to relax. Ensure that pets can't run out the open front door.

Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving!
