Before you celebrate with fireworks and BBQs this weekend, remember to take some pet care precautions!  These tips will help you celebrate a pet-friendly 4th of July!

Pet-Friendly 4th of July Tips:

• Keep Pets Inside - If you're hosting a 4th of July party, be sure to keep pets indoors.  The loud noises from the fireworks can cause your pet become nervous and jump the fence.
• Keep Alcohol Out-of-Reach -Alcoholic drinks are dangerous to all pets.  Alcohol is toxic and can leave your pet dangerously intoxicated or even in a coma.
• Provide Pet with ID - Make sure that your pet is properly ID'd this 4th of July.  In the unfortunate event that your pet does become loose, it will be easier for them to find their way back home if they have an identification tag with your name and phone number.
• Never Use Fireworks Around Pets - Lit fireworks can pose a danger to your furry friends.  Unlit fireworks also contain toxic substances that can be dangerous.
