Like
many Americans, you may be planning a festive Memorial Day, complete with
barbecue and fireworks. It’s important to remember, fireworks and dogs don't
mix.
Unlike
people, dogs won’t associate the noise, flashes, and burning smell of
pyrotechnics with a celebration. Fireworks will often cause panic and anxiety
in dogs. It’s important to remember that dogs panic at the sound of fireworks
and flee into the night, often winding up lost, injured, or killed.
Here
are a few tips to help keep your pet safe this Memorial Day.
1.
Keep your pet indoors at all times, if
possible.
2.
Use Pet Friendly Repellent.
3.
Don’t give your pet table food.
