Time For Fireworks and Fun: Preparing for Pet Anxiety

As we enter the 2024 Summer Season, many of us look forward to loud concerts, outdoor gatherings, and fireworks! While these celebrations are often fun filled for humans, they may cause stress and anxiety to animals if preparations aren't made ahead of time.

Animals associate the loud noises with danger, and their natural instincts tell them to run, hide and panic. Keep reading for some helpful tricks and treats you can try to keep your pet's happy and stress free this Summer Season!
