Winter has finally arrived in Michigan and it’s tim
e to start thinking about how to keep your pet safe during the cold months.
- Don’t leave your dog or pet outside for long periods of time. Consider purchasing a pet door.
- Keep your dog or pet warm, dry, and away from drafts. Sweaters are not just for style and may be just the right thing for your pet.
- Be extra careful when your dog or pet is near frozen water.
- Groom your dog or pet regularly to keep him/her properly insulated.
- Feed your dog extra calories if he is a working dog.
- Towel or blow-dry a wet dog or pet.
- Don’t leave your dog or pet alone in a car.
- Antifreeze is poisonous to dogs or pets although they like the smell.
- Chocolate and alcohol (abundant during winter holidays) should be kept away from pets.
- Rock salt to melt ice may irritate dog or pets footpads. Either a pair of boots or Pet-safe salt should be used.
- Provide plenty of fresh water for your dog or pet.
- Be careful of fireplaces which can burn your dog or pet.
