Halloween Pet Safety Tip: Make sure any pet costumes do NOT have pieces that can be ingested and cause blockages or choking hazards. Give your pet time to acclimate to wearing a costume prior to Halloween. Also please be sure to keep any glow sticks and glow jewelry out of reach of your pet, as these can be dangerous for your pets to ingest.

While we encourage everyone to give their dogs ample exercise during the winter, there are some walking safety tips to be aware of. For example, keep an eye on their body temperature, bringing them indoors if they seem or feel too cold. Also, keep your dog away from any blue or green colored marks in the snow, as it could be toxic antifreeze! ❄️🐕#vcapets
