Keeping Your Dogs Safe During the Festive Season

During the festive and holiday season, many people go on vacation or enjoy a well-deserved break at home. While owners relax, their dogs often need to be kenneled, or stay with family or friends while their owners are away.

However, when dogs are removed from their familiar environment, it can cause significant stress. Their normal routines are disrupted, and being in an unfamiliar place may lead to anxiety. For this reason, owners must carefully select facilities where qualified personnel are available to care for their dogs and ensure their wellbeing.

Extra Stress Factors During the Holidays

Unfortunately, one of the biggest stress factors for dogs during the holiday season is fireworks. The loud noises and bright flashes can be extremely frightening and traumatic for animals, adding even more pressure to an already stressful situation.

Braveheart Bio-Dog Academy strongly urges everyone who chooses to use fireworks during the holidays to do so responsibly. We kindly ask that you take animals in the surrounding areas into consideration and respect their wellbeing.

Advice for Pet Owners Staying Home

For owners staying home with their pets, it’s important to create a safe and calm environment. Keep your pets indoors during fireworks displays, offer comfort and reassurance, and ensure they feel safe and secure at all times.

From all of us at Braveheart Bio-Dog Academy, we wish you a prosperous 2010 filled with happiness, safety, and many joyful hours with your dogs.
