Keep Pets Safe This Fourth of July | Vancouver News

Fireworks mean fun for humans, but chaos for pets—especially on the Fourth of July. With loud noises and crowds, anxious animals often bolt, leading to a spike in lost pets. The Humane Society for Southwest Washington urges owners to prep ahead: keep pets indoors, ensure ID tags and microchips are up to date, and check collar fit. For severe anxiety, consult your vet. If your pet does go missing, act fast—check local social media groups and use resources from hssw.org/july4 and hssw.org/lost-found/. Preparation is key to keeping your furry friend safe and reunited with you. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
