Firework fears
Many dogs, cats and other pets are terrified of fireworks. Up close, those colorful bursts are louder than a jet plane taking off-and a dog can hear four times further than a human.
It’s no wonder that numerous frightened pets run away from fireworks, often harming themselves in the process. For pet parents, being prepared is the best way to prevent a holiday-ruining mishap.
5 things you can do to keep your pets safe during fireworks
Make sure that ID tags and microchip registration are up to date
Double check that doors, gates and fences are secured
Give pets a quiet, closed-door room to relax
Stay with your pet and comfort them
Ask about anti-anxiety meds
New Year’s resolutions-not just for people!
