I hope everyone has a safe 4th,
please think of your family, friends, neighbors, before you lite that fuse!
Think of the veterans and elderly !! Many can’t handle loud noises.
Many animals including dogs, cats and horses will run in fear!
More pets run away on the Fourth of July than any other day, so you should take extra steps to ensure their safety. Keep a keen eye on your dog during the commotion, and make sure your pet is wearing proper identification.
Bring them inside, keep them safe !
It is natural for dogs to be afraid of loud noises. The sounds trigger their nervous systems, and they can become anxious or afraid.
Running away from the noise is a survival instinct.
Bring them inside ! Keep them safe!
Remember, to your dog, the experience of fireworks is different than other natural loud noises, like thunder.
Fireworks are closer to the ground, more vibrant, and are accompanied by sudden booms, flashes, bright lights, and burning smells.
Dogs experience the world through their senses — nose, eyes, ears. The typical Fourth of July celebration can be overwhelming, frightening, and terrifying to them.
Bring them inside! Keep them safe!
