Get your pet ready for the Fourth of July. While the loud noises and bright flashes may bring a smile to our faces, fireworks can be very stressful for pets, often prompting them to escape in search of a calmer environment. In fact, more pets go missing on the Fourth of July than any other day!

To keep your pets safe this Fourth of July:

• Ensure that licenses and microchips are up-to-date with current contact information.
• Make sure pets are wearing properly fitted collars with identification tags.
• Keep pets indoors or in a secure location during fireworks displays.
• Before bringing pets inside, ensure they have had plenty of exercise.
• Create a calming environment with ambient noise from a television, radio, or air conditioner.
