St. Patrick’s Day is arriving, and many people are gearing up to celebrate the Irish celebration! While St. Patrick’s Day is known for its fun and high-energy celebrations, we at BudgetPectCare want to make sure that your four-legged pals stay out of trouble. While we like celebrations, it is preferable to keep potential hazards and pollutants out of your pet’s reach. To make it simpler for you, BudgetPetCare’s top safety tips are mentioned below to keep your pet buddies safe, happy, and healthy. Keep Alcoholic Beverages Out of the Reach of Pets Alcohol appeals to dogs’ senses of scent and flavor, and they will drink it if given the chance. Please keep your drinks out of reach of your pet. Animals can be poisoned by alcohol. Remember, it includes green beer as well.
Parades, Celebrations, and Loud Noises Might Cause Anxiety in Your Pet If you’re throwing a St. Patrick’s Day party, your pets might need to take a vacation from the festivities. If you think the party will be too much for your pet, keep these suggestions in mind: Use a crate to keep them in a quiet room with a radio or television to keep them occupied. The familiar sounds will make them believe that this is just another day. You can partially cover the crate to create more of a den for pets who are prone to worry. Soft lighting also aids in their relaxation. With a calm, soothing voice, reassure your pet. As a responsible pet parent, you should be aware that if something causes your pet substantial distress, you may wish to avoid the situation altogether. Use your best judgment.
Shamrocks Are Beautiful, but They Are Poisonous Shamrocks are lovely St. Patrick’s Day decorations, but they can be poisonous to pets. Enjoy their beauty, but keep them out of Fluffy’s and Fido’s reach. The good news is that these plants aren’t particularly tasty, and your pets are unlikely to ingest more than a bite — it’s best not to take the chance. Note: If your pet eats Shamrock, contact your veterinarian right away to assess the danger of poisoning.
Pets Dressed in Green Fido as a fuzzy little Leprechaun has become a popular costume for St. Patrick’s Day! If your dog is used to wearing sweaters, he’ll probably adapt to wearing a costume as well – as long as it doesn’t obstruct his vision or hearing. Understand that not all pets enjoy wearing costumes, so if he doesn’t, don’t push the issue. . . . Read More
Bottom Line: Even if you don’t intend to take your pet anyplace, accidents may happen, and pets can readily escape through an open door or fence. Just in case, double-check that your pet’s microchip is up to date and he or she is wearing a collar with current ID tags.
