Spent Fireworks & Dog Safety

Fireworks are fun, but they can be hazardous for dogs. After a noisy night of fireworks, it’s tempting to take your dog out for a walk, but be mindful of the dangers lurking in parks and woodlands—spent firework casings, foil fragments, sticks, and even leftover food like bread, burgers, and sausages, all attract curious dogs.

Fireworks in the UK:

Over 130 million fireworks are sold each year in the UK, and despite their popularity, they come with risks. Over 1,400 people are injured annually, costing the NHS millions.

My Advice After Fireworks:

•Keep your dog on a lead for a few days after a fireworks-heavy night. While councils do clean up, it’s unlikely to happen immediately—especially over the weekend.

•Watch out for spent fireworks and other debris that may attract your dog.

What’s in a Firework?

Fireworks contain explosive materials like gunpowder, and an aerial shell (the part that explodes) can contain up to 50 mg of gunpowder. The remnants—spent casings and debris—can pose a danger if ingested.

UK Fireworks Law:

Fireworks can be set off in the UK from 7am to 11pm. Exceptions include:
• Bonfire Night: until midnight
• New Year’s Eve, Diwali, and Chinese New Year: until 1am
Category 2 and 3 fireworks are for consumer use, while Category 4 are professional-grade and should never be sold to the public.

What to Do if You Suspect Your Dog Ate a Spent Firework:

•Stay calm. Gunpowder poisoning in dogs is rare, as most of the chemicals are already used up when the firework explodes.
•Look for signs of poisoning like vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or low blood pressure. If in doubt, contact your vet immediately.
•It’s more likely your dog will find a spent firework and carry it to you, rather than eat it. Always dispose of spent fireworks safely.

Key Takeaways:

•Fireworks can be dangerous year-round, especially during peak seasons like Bonfire Night and New Year’s.

•Know your area, stay vigilant for debris, and keep your dog close or on a lead.

•Be responsible and stay safe!

Let’s be careful out there—our furry friends depend on us!
