Happy New Year! Keep It Happy: Keep The Dogs In On New Year's Eve!

When humans get crazy, it often means trouble for dogs. Loud noises, unfamiliar people in the house, loud parties and thumping music can frighten your dog.

If you're celebrating, put your dog indoors in a safe, quiet location, where visitors aren't likely to go.

If you plan to have a party or an open house, chances are that front door is going to be left open a few times, so keep the animals in a separate room, so that no dogs or kitties are accidentally left outside.

Traffic will be crazy, and there are drunks driving, so if your dog or cat get out on New Year's Eve, the chances are higher that they will be hit by a car.

Over the New Year Holiday, Animal Services are overtasked, and the shelters typically don't open or answer calls until the following business day, so if your dog or cat is lost on Friday,  you may not know if he's been found for Monday or after! That would be awful, right? Right!! SO,

Don't let your New Year become tragic! Protect your pets!
