Danger to Pets
Whole Top Sirloin
Fireworks Can Be No Picnic
For Your Pet
When fireworks explode, many
dogs panic and may crawl under
something to hide, shaking with
fear
Others may choke them
selves to death in their own back
yard as they struggle against their
chain to escape the terror of the
sound; or they may bolt through
the window or locked screen door
and run great distances only to drop
exhausted, confused and lost
Here are some tips for owners to
protect their pets during the July
4th week:
1 Never leave the pet alone
during a fireworks display or
allow the pet around neighbor
hood fireworks bursts
The
best place for the pet is in­
side the house where the
owner can provide comfort and
security.
2.
Make sure the pet wears
a buckle-type collar or harness
with a current license so the pet
can be returned easily to the
owner, if it does run in panic
This is vital for pets which
"never leave the house" also
3. Pets with a known history of
sound shyness can often bene
fit from tranquilizers from a
veterinarian.
If a pet does become lost during
the holiday excitement, the owner
should look for it immediately in
the neighborhood Signs should be
posted in the area and the owner
should visit the animal shelter in
Troutdale the next day
Keep
looking because often pets will still
bo trying to get home for weeks
Non pet owners can extend their
humaneness toward animals by
curtailing their use of fireworks if it
is obviously causing distress for an
animal
It is an excellent time for
parents to discuss with their
children that kindness to animals
includes being thoughtful about
fireworks.
