SUMMER PET SAFETY TIPS ⛑️

As hot days and fun celebrations are upon us, it’s important to remember to take extra care of our furry friends. Here are our tips for protecting your pets from our very own Flying Dogtor, Dr. Adi Chatow!

πŸŽ‡ Pets are more sensitive to loud noises, flashing lights and strong smells. As 4th of July is right around the corner, be sure to exercise pets early and leave them safely indoors. If your pet gets extra anxious from fireworks, ask your veterinarian about anti-anxiety medications and other recommendations appropriate for your pet.

πŸ†” Many pets escape their homes during the 4th of July season from fear and anxiety of the fireworks -- so don't forget to tag your pets! All pets should wear collars with ID tags and should be microchipped and registered under your name and address.

β˜€οΈ NEVER leave your pet in a parked vehicle, minimize strenuous physical activity during the hot hours of the day, and make sure your pet has constant access to shade and water. 

🌑 High temperatures put your pet at risk of heat stroke, which can become deadly very quickly. Keep an eye on your pets and rush your pet to a veterinary hospital if you see any signs of heatstroke, such as excessive panting, collapse, and bright red gums.
