JULY 3-9, 2022 ROUNDUP Celebrations Continued From Page 5 FYI Keep Pets Safe "Anxious dogs have been known to dig under or jump over fences, break tethers or even shatter windows in response to their fireworks fears," warns Hannah Stember of Best Friends Animal Society. To keep your fur babies safe this year, she offers the following tips: • Bring all pets indoors whenever neighborhood fireworks displays are likely, making sure that any potentially harmful food or alcohol is kept out of reach. • Secure pets in a room, close the windows, draw the curtains, surround them with comfort- ing toys, and play loud music or turn on the television to drown out the frightening sounds. • Always keep pets away from lit fireworks (including in your own back yard). Some will chase after the bright moving objects and are at risk of being burned or blinded in the process. • Fireworks are toxic if ingested, so be sure to keep unlit fireworks out of reach. • Ensure that pets are wearing current identifi- cation tags, and make sure your current contact information is recorded with the vet clinic or shelter that implanted the microchip. • Have a plan in place in case your pet does go missing that includes calling and visiting the local shelter and posting information about your missing pet on platforms such as Nextdoor and Facebook.
