Winter brings its share of hazards for pets, from cold weather to dry air and icy surfaces. Here are some steps to shield your pets from common winter woes:
โข Limit Exposure to Extreme Cold: Prolonged exposure to freezing temperatures can lead to hypothermia or frostbite. Limit outdoor time and ensure pets have access to warm shelter.
โข Watch for Ice and Salt: Icy sidewalks can cause slips or paw injuries. De-icing salts can irritate paws or be toxic if ingested. Rinse your petโs paws after walks to remove any residues.
โข Check Their Coat and Skin: Cold, dry air can lead to itchy, flaky skin. Regular brushing helps distribute natural oils, keeping their coat and skin healthy. Consider using pet-safe moisturizers if needed.
โข Hydration Matters: Pets can become dehydrated even in winter. Ensure they always have access to fresh, unfrozen water.
