As a responsible pet owner, you can take a few simple steps to keep your pet healthy and happy.<\/p>\n<p>Your pet is part of your family and deserves to be cared for and protected. Whether it\u2019s how to keep your pet protected in the event that he or she becomes separated from you, what to do to keep your pet safe at home or how to protect them from the summer heat, there are a number of things we would like to share.<\/p>\n<h3>Protect your pet<\/h3>\n<p>You can keep your pets safe and reduce the likelihood that they\u2019ll become lost or stolen by following these tips:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Provide your pet with a collar and ID tags\u00a0<\/strong>(keep recent photos and written descriptions of your companion animals on hand at all times)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Keep your pet indoors when you\u2019re not home<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Have your pet microchipped<\/strong>. Collars can be pulled off or fall off, so this more permanent identifier provides an excellent way to ensure you are able to reunite.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Consider downloading the new smartphone app: Finding Rover<\/strong>\u00a0and register your pet by taking his\/her photo<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spay and neuter your pet.<\/strong>\u00a0Some studies have shown that sterilized animals are less likely to roam<\/li>\n<li><strong>Leash your pet when outside<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Make sure you are careful when guests come by to avoid inadvertent escape<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>General Safety Tips<\/h3>\n<p>While many of these are common sense, they are included here as a friendly reminder.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Establish a veterinary-patient relationship\u00a0<\/strong>and make sure your pet has annual checkups<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make sure your pet is up-to-date on vaccines<\/strong>, especially rabies<\/li>\n<li><strong>Know how to perform CPR and provide basic first aid<\/strong>. See our article about pet first aid programs<\/li>\n<li><strong>Give your pet plenty of exercise.<\/strong>\u00a0Regular exercise will help your pet feel better and live longer<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use gates<\/strong>\u00a0and childproof latches to keep pets out of inappropriate areas within the home<\/li>\n<li><strong>Place medications, cleaners, chemicals and laundry supplies out of reach<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Keep trash cans covered or inside a latched cabinet<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Place dangling wires<\/strong>\u00a0from lamps, televisions, stereos and telephones out of reach<\/li>\n<li><strong>Keep the toilet lid closed to prevent drowning or drinking of harmful cleaning chemicals<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Move house plants that may be poisonous out of reach\u00a0<\/strong>(the most important is the EASTER Lily)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Learn about foods to avoid that may be hazardous to your pet\u00a0<\/strong>(e.g., chocolate, onions, raisins and grapes, and xylitol)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Clean all antifreeze from the floor and driveway, as one taste can be lethal to animals<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Make sure your kitten doesn\u2019t get into danger<\/strong>\u00a0(e.g., that he\/she hasn\u2019t jumped into the dryer before you turn it on.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Put away all sewing and craft notions<\/strong>, especially thread.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Do not unleash<\/strong>\u00a0your pet in unfamiliar territory<\/li>\n<li><strong>Avoid interactions with unknown dogs (bite wounds)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Keep your pet safe in the summer heat<\/h3>\n<p>Follow these simple tips to help your pet stay healthy and comfortable when the summer heat sizzles.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Never leave your pet in a parked car<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Watch the humidity.<\/strong>\u00a0It\u2019s not just the high temps that can affect your pet. If the humidity is too high they are unable to cool themselves and their temperature can skyrocket, leading to heat stroke, which can be deadly in dogs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Limit exercise on hot days\u00a0<\/strong>(i.e<strong>.<\/strong>, quiet walk). Consider early morning or late at night as these are cooler parts of the day and will make the walk more comfortable for both you and your dog.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Watch for signs of dehydration.<\/strong>\u00a0Dogs do not sweat like people, but instead cool off by panting and through their feet. Small kiddie pools are useful in helping to keep your dog cooled.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cats sweat through their paws, not by panting, like dogs.<\/strong>\u00a0Keeping your cat inside in an air conditioned room, in front of a circulating fan or on a cool floor can help.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Be particularly careful with snub-nosed dogs such as Bulldogs and Pugs.\u00a0<\/strong>They have smaller airways than other dogs so it is more difficult for them to pant to release heat.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Watch out for hot pavement.\u00a0<\/strong>You might consider doggie booties available at your local pet supply store. Heat rises from the ground, especially asphalt, and since dogs absorb and release heat through their feet, walking on hot pavement can be dangerous for your dog.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Provide ample shade and water.<\/strong>\u00a0Add ice to water when possible. Tree shade and tarps are ideal because they don\u2019t obstruct air flow (as compared to a doghouse, for example). However, use your judgment: it\u2019s best not to leave your dog outside if it\u2019s hot.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make sure to know your dog\u2019s swimming ability.<\/strong>\u00a0When your pet is cooling off in a pool or maybe you\u2019re taking him or her on a boat, use a life jacket, if appropriate. While you may think your dog can do the doggie paddle, some dogs just can\u2019t swim.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Spring is a time of new beginnings so take the time to make sure that this season proves to be a healthy and happy one for you, your family and pets by following these pet safety tips.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"khpLhvqBBZ\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.vet.tufts.edu\/2015\/01\/spring-has-sprung-tips-to-keep-your-pets-healthy-and-happy\/\">Spring Has Sprung: Tips to Keep Your Pets Healthy and Happy<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe title=\"&#8220;Spring Has Sprung: Tips to Keep Your Pets Healthy and Happy&#8221; &#8212; News at Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" src=\"https:\/\/news.vet.tufts.edu\/2015\/01\/spring-has-sprung-tips-to-keep-your-pets-healthy-and-happy\/embed\/#?secret=khpLhvqBBZ\" data-secret=\"khpLhvqBBZ\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><div class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_0 et_pb_row_empty\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div> It is now officially spring and that time of year when we come out of hibernation, open our doors and windows and spend more and more time outside with friends, family and our pets.
