Fall Safety

As the leaves start to change and the air gets cooler, it’s important to think about how to keep your pets safe during the fall season. Here are a few tips to help you ensure your furry friend stays happy and healthy:

  • Keep an eye on outdoor hazards: During the fall, there are a number of outdoor hazards that can pose a risk to your pet’s health. Keep an eye out for things like mushrooms, which can be toxic to pets, and sharp objects like sticks or broken branches that can cause injuries.
  • Be cautious with decorations: If you’re planning to decorate your home for fall, be cautious about where you place decorations. Keep items like candles and electrical cords out of reach of your pets to prevent accidents.
  • Watch out for toxic foods: Fall is a time for delicious seasonal treats, but some of these foods can be toxic to pets. Keep your pet away from things like grapes, raisins, and chocolate, which can all be harmful if ingested.
  • Make sure your pet is visible: With the days getting shorter, it’s important to make sure your pet is visible during walks. Consider using reflective gear or adding lights to your pet’s collar to help drivers see them.

By following these tips, you can help keep your pet safe and healthy during the fall season!
