Please be mindful when letting your pets out!
• Make sure they are wearing a properly fit collar with ID tags AT ALL TIMES. If microchipped, please make sure they are registered and all information is up to date.
•DO NOT LET THEM ROAM! During heavy snowfall, dogs can easily get confused and disoriented, losing track of familiar scents!
• When leash walking, avoid ice patches that can pose additional risks to you and your pet. Hold leash properly by placing wrist through handle and wrap leash around your hand a few times.
• Clear out snowbanks along the perimeter of your fence. A 4 foot fence can easily become a 2 foot fence and a 6 foot fence can easily become a 4 foot fence. Snow can drift and freeze over acting as an escape route.
• Check for Breaches along fence lines, make sure all gates are secured. Remove down tree limbs that can act as an escape route.
• If putting a sweater on dog, be sure to remove immediately once indoors. Thoroughly dry off dog including their belly.
• Thoroughly clean off paws, checking in-between webbing, Ice Melt can cause injury to paw pads!
•Antifreeze is TOXIC.
• TAP THE HOOD! Animals, including our feline friends often seek warmth under cars and can become entrapped in engines and undercarriages.
• IF YOU SEE SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING...
If you see a dog left outdoors for extended periods of time, during inclement weather (CODE BLUE); without adequate shelter, food and water please call your local authorities and message our page immediately! Time is of the essence!
