It is that time of year again…fireworks, hot weather and thunder storms will be a part of all of our lives. It is important to remember how loud noises and heat can affect your pet. Here are a few tips to help keep them safe:

• Place your pet in your home with a TV or radio on to help drown out loud noises such as fireworks and/or thunder.

• Think about enrolling your pet in an air conditioned day care facility like ours to keep your pet cool and safe during the summer heat. They will have a blast with all of their new friends!

• Never leave your pet in a vehicle. Temperatures can rise to dangerous and even deadly levels in a matter of minutes in the summer sun and heat!

• Never leave your pet unattended outside for long periods of time during the summer weather.

• Always have plenty of cool, fresh water available for your pets.

• We have all heard about the rise in lime disease in our area. It is important to treat your pet each month for fleas and ticks. You may also want to treat your lawn for fleas and ticks. There are many great products available at your local garden centers including “green” alternatives.

• A full grooming on a regular basis can help keep your pet in great health during the summer months. Ear cleaning, nail trimming and baths are an important part of your pet’s care.
