Great summer, here are some more safety tips:
Beach Fun...A day at the beach is fun for you, but it can be dangerous to your pet. Saltwater is not healthy for your dog to drink, and unless your dog has some shade, the Sun and the sand could be dangerous!
Do not leave your pet alone in the car... temperatures can reach 120 within half an hour. Dogs and cats do not breathe, and can only dissipate heat by gasps and through the pads of their feet. Pets left in hot cars can suffer from brief depletion by heat, heat stroke, brain damage, or may even die.
Corazon-enfermedad of the worm, it is transmitted by mosquitoes, can be fatal to dogs and cats. Another summer threats are the fleas and ticks, use only treatments of fleas and ticks, recommended by a veterinarian.
Plant fertilisers and garden can be fatal. We spend more time doing our patio and gardens quite during the summer, but remember that many foods from plants, fertilizers and insecticides can be fatal if your dog eats them.
4Th of July fireworks are... Yes, beautiful to see, but the hearing of the dog is more acute as a human. Some animals become nervous and try to flee the sound and dog walking during all night fireworks may frighten your dog. Be alert to sensitive ears of your dog and keep it inside the House so that he feels safe.
Water safety... now that the pools are open, do not leave your pet alone near a swimming pool; not all dogs are good swimmers. Make sure you wash your dog outside when he swims in a chlorinated pool and not try to make him drink the water of the pool because it has harmful chemicals that can disturb your upside down!
So with all the summer fun happening, only take into account that our pets do not enjoy the Sun or the fireworks as much as us!Enjoy the July 4 holiday with children, Fireworks, parades, ice cream and pets!
