* Take photos of your dog's face and full body if you don't already have current ones.
* Make sure microchip information is up to date with your contact info.
* Have your dog wearing its collar and tags.
These rules apply even if your dog will be staying home. My dog trainer gave us this lecture last weekend and said she's seen dogs jump through windows and break glass to escape in a panic. More dogs go missing over 4th Of July than any other time of year.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
DO NOT LEAVE YOUR DOG'S COLLAR ON IF THEY WILL BE CRATED AS THIS IS A RISK FOR STRANGULATION.
Other tips:
* Use vet approved calming supplements or prescription sedatives if necessary.
* Turn on white noise like a fan or background noise like the radio to block out fireworks.
* Place your pet in a room with no windows such as a bathroom with their bed and comfort objects.
Surely someone has mentioned the substance that can be put on cords to keep pets from chewing on them, like the stuff people use to stop biting their own fingernails...

Playing the piano in solitude with fruit punch in a glass and garlic crunchies in my modern day freezer. Yeah, dreamy. 💚
Forever wishing I was an 18th century vampire drinking blood out of a wine glass and gracefully playing the piano in my New Orleans town house while my daughter screams and my husband bitches about the importance of human life in the love seat across from me.
deleting my zero note posts like a Victorian family locking their problem child in the attic to save face in polite societyÂ
