Luna and Cocoa are ready for Halloween are you? The veterinarians at California Veterinary Specialists in Carlsbad, CA have a few safety tips to keep your pet safe during their tour of the neighborhood.
*First, don’t leave your pets outside while you trick or treat with the kids. Unfortunately, there are people who think it is fun to tease, injure, steal or torture your beloved pet.
*Secondly, we have all heard this before, but please don’t give your dog or cat chocolate.
* Watch for candies containing the artificial sweetener xylitol which can be poisonous to dogs. * Lastly, careful about the cute costume you are thinking about putting on Fido. If it has a mask make sure it does not cover the eyes. Careful of strings attached to costumes they have the potential to get caught on something and tangle the dog and you.
Wishing all of you a safe and Happy Halloween.
Roll over and out,
Cocoa, Luna, Karla and Anna
