🎄🐾 Seasonal Dangers for Dogs: Keep Your Dog Safe This Festive Season! 🐾🎄

As we dive into the holiday season, it’s important to remember that some festive traditions can pose risks to our furry friends. Here are a few common seasonal dangers to be aware of:

1️⃣ Christmas Foods:
• Chocolate, mince pies, raisins, grapes, and onions are toxic to dogs.
• Fatty foods like roast trimmings can upset their stomach or cause more serious issues.
• Keep festive snacks and leftovers well out of reach!

2️⃣ Decorations:
• Tinsel, baubles, fairy lights, and gift wrap may look like toys to your dog, but they can cause choking or blockages if ingested.
• Be mindful of low-hanging decorations and exposed wires.

3️⃣ Plants:
• Poinsettias, mistletoe, holly, and Christmas trees can be harmful if chewed. Even pine needles can cause irritation!

4️⃣ Cold Weather:
• Icy ground and snow can hurt your dog’s paws. Rinse their feet after walks to avoid salt or grit causing irritation.
• Provide extra warmth for short-haired or senior dogs when it’s chilly.

5️⃣ Noise & Visitors:
• Fireworks, crackers, and holiday parties can be overwhelming. Create a quiet, safe space for your dog to relax.

Enjoy the season while keeping your four-legged family members safe and happy! Share this to help other dog lovers stay informed. 🐶❤️

So sad that New Milton Carnival has been cancelled because of weather but I thought you might like to see our last carriage rehearsal with Bramble playing the lead roll and Florence and Lexi enjoying being princesses and travelling in style.🎠

***CANCELLED***

Message from the Lions Club "Due to the extremely high winds being forecast for this Saturday and potential for heavy rain, the Lions Club of New Milton & District has reluctantly taken the decision that The Lions New Milton Christmas Festival, Parade and Lights Switch-On has been cancelled. Whereas heavy rain can be managed to some degree, some forecasts indicated gusts of wind of up to 50mph and this would obviously be a very dangerous level, even with heavy weights on gazebo legs".
