Some helpful tips to help your pet and fireworks
Desensitize your dog Play recordings of fireworks at low volumes and gradually increase the volume over time. Pair the sounds with treats and praise.
Distract your dog: Engage them with games, puzzle toys, or brushing.
Stay calm: Try not to change your routine, as your dog can pick up on anxiety.
Provide comfort: Comforting your dog can actually lower their heart rate.
Exercise your dog: Take them for a long walk before the fireworks start to tire them out.
Use white noise: Play calming music or turn on a fan to mask the sounds.
Consider calming aids: Anxiety vests or calming supplements may help.
Feed your dog early: Avoid feeding them close to the time the fireworks are expected to start.
