T<\/span>he Fourth of July is right around the corner which means people are going to set off fireworks. Even if you have no intention of being around fireworks, you need to take steps to protect your pets<\/a> from them. Don\u2019t assume that just because your neighbors have never set off fireworks in the past that you don\u2019t have to worry about them. <\/p>\n

The first thing you need to do to prepare your pet for the possibility of Fourth of July fireworks is to plan on the loud noises scaring your pet. Most pets hate fireworks. Consider getting a tight coat for your pet to wear which will help ease their anxiety. If you know that your pet is already sound sensitive and it suffers from anxiety, you should talk to your veterinarian about getting some calming medications.<\/p>\n

As the evening grows long, don\u2019t let your pet out of your house. The Fourth of July is one of those dates when you should complete your evening walk early in the evening. You want your pets to be tucked inside your home before the light show begins. If your pet has to go outside during, or even after the firework display, take them out on a leash. Animal shelters throughout California<\/em> and the rest of the United States report that they get more reports of lost pets in the days following The Fourth. Almost all of these pets involve an animal who never runs off so their owner got too casual.<\/p>\n

It wouldn\u2019t hurt to take a current photo or two of your pet in the days leading up to the Fourth of July<\/em>. Having a current photo that you can show local animal shelters, vet clinics, and post on lost pet<\/a> social media sites drastically increases the odds of someone identifying your pet and returning them to you.<\/p>\n

If you haven\u2019t already gotten your pet microchipped<\/em>, now is an excellent time to do so. The microchip makes it possible for animal shelters to quickly reunite you and your lost pet.<\/p>\n

If possible, stay home so that you can comfort your pet. Even if they appear to be ignoring you, your presence really will make them feel better and it will also help them recover more quickly.<\/p>\n

If you leave the house during the fireworks display, be careful while going through the doors. Expect your pet to want to bolt through the door with you. <\/p>\n

When it comes to fireworks and pets, it\u2019s in everyone\u2019s best interest to prepare for the worst.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
