Every pet needs a healthy diet, lots of love and a safe place to live!

Here are 5 ways to keep your pet safe!

  • Keep all electric cords out of reach or covered by a chew-proof guard. Puppies and kittens will chew on anything.
  • Don't leave any medicines on tables, chairs, or in open cabinets.
  • Cover your outside pool or pond. Many heavily-coated dogs and cats may be unable to swim to safety when their coats are soaking wet.
  • Keep pets away from ice-covered ponds and lakes. Cats and dogs may wander onto ice too thin to support their weight.
  • Keep all painting supplies in closed cabinets.
