More pets are lost on July 4th than any other day of the year! Keep your pets safe this 4th by following these steps: make sure they are wearing current ID tags. Consider microchipping your pets, and have current photos of your pet on hand, just in case. Keep your dog indoors during fireworks, and drown out the noise of the fireworks with music or tv. Instead of coddling a frightened pet, which only reinforces their fear, play games or exercise with them to distract them. Animals typically run away in the opposite direction of the noise. If they do run, check with your local shelter.
