Celebrating the 4th of July With Your Furry Friends
- Never use fireworks around your pets. Exposure to lit fireworks can be extremely dangerous to them resulting in trauma to their face and paws – especially our very curious furry friends. Unused fireworks can also pose a danger due to toxic substances that can be found in them, such as potassium nitrate, arsenic and other heavy metals.
- It might seem like a great idea to take them with you to view firework displays, but they may not agree with you. They can become frightened and/or disoriented by the loud sounds. Keep them safe from the noise, and in an escape-proof area at home. They will thank you for this.
There are other things to keep in mind while enjoying the outdoors with your furry friends. Click here to learn more.
