On November 3, One Health Day promotes efforts worldwide to bring together health disciplines that affect humans, animals, and the environment. The day also recognizes how closely our shared environment impacts human health.

Did you know that certain animals spread diseases between animals and humans called zoonotic diseases? Some examples of zoonotic diseases include:

Zoonotic influenza
Salmonellosis
West Nile Virus
Rabies
Brucellosis
Lyme disease
Plague
Malaria

It takes cooperation amongst many groups of people to combat zoonotic diseases. Physicians, veterinarians, pet owners, farmers, ecologists, policymakers, and those who monitor public health threats form the group. The groups hope that working together will better understand zoonotic diseases. Understanding will lead to better control of zoonotic diseases and fewer cases worldwide.

On this day, health organizations, corporations, universities, and individuals worldwide hold a variety of events and activities. These include workshops, seminars, webinars, presentations, and contests. The goal of the events is to enhance human, animal, and environmental health by advancing awareness of the One Health concept.

Pet Groomer Appreciation Day is a day to celebrate those who work in the pet (dog, cat, rabbit, etc) grooming industry. Pet groomers bathe and/or give pet trims and spa days to your furry family members. Pet Groomers are extremely compassionate individuals that have an incredible amount of love and passion for this career! They deserve to be celebrated as a vital member of the pet professional community in that we help the pet owners in keeping their animals clean, trimmed, healthy (brushing teeth and cleaning ears). Tag your favorite groomer/salon to show appreciation!

Halloween poses a few unique safety challenges for pet owners that you might not even think of, especially if this is your first Halloween with a pet in your household.

1. Keep candy away from pets. There are many kinds of candy that are very dangerous for pets to ingest, and chocolate is one of the most common. Know that dark chocolate and baking chocolate contain the highest levels of methylxanthines like theobromine and caffeine that can cause: vomiting, diarrhea, seizures, arrhythmias, & death (in extreme cases).

2. Keep pets away from Halloween decor. Pets don't get what these changes on the lawn or in the home are all about. Try to keep pets away from the decor entirely if possible, but if you can’t, always keep an eye on them around the decorations. From power cords to lit candles, seasonal decorations can be a pet’s nightmare.

3. Do not overheat pets in Halloween costumes. A hot costume can cause heat-related illness in your pet, and can lead to a serious medical emergency. If the temperature is warm on Halloween night, or the costume looks constricting, cutting off air flow around your pet, skip the pet costume—or take a few pictures at home in costume and take it off of your pet quickly. The risk isn't Insta-worthy!

4. Secure pets away from the door. Frequent doorbell ringing or door knocking from trick-or-treaters can be startling to your pet. Costumed strangers can cause them to leap into panic mode. Think: growls, bites, and bolting as you open the door. Keep your pet away from the door so they won’t become scared by the “intruders” in costumes. It is also best to keep your pet in a separate room.

5. Protect your pet from loud noises. Providing a safe, calm area in your home for them, away from the front door, will help them out big time. If your pet is very afraid of the sounds associated with Halloween—such as the doorbell ringing, the shouting of people outside, or bright, blinking lights — then you might want to use white noise to help ease their anxiety.
