Happy Independence Day everyone! I love fireworks as much as anyone, but some of our four-legged friends may have some other opinions. Here's a few tips to help them have an easier night!
Try to get them some high value, long lasting chew toys to enjoy in a calm and quiet place! And try to get the pups to be calmly enjoying them BEFORE the show starts, they may not be able to enjoy the treats if they're already stressed!
IF you have to bring the pup outside after dark, make sure they are secure with a leash/harness! You don't want to have them bolting if they are trying to do their business, and they definitely want to feel safe and secure with you.
Try to set up a little "Den" for them to relax in! If they have a kennel, cover it with some blankets/sheets to help them feel safe, but not confined. Keep some soft music or a TV on medium volume to help dampen the noise of the sudden BOOMS off in the distance.
I hope this helps some of you, the 4th is no reason to traumatize any pups, especially your own. Enjoy the Holiday everyone!
