This bonfire weekend it’s important to be aware that firework festivities can be an uncomfortable and distressing time for your dog.
🎆Monitor your dog for signs of anxiety, such as restlessness and hiding.
🎆Ensure your dog has access to their safe space and time to relax and recover.
🎆If they’re worried about going out into the garden or for a walk the next day, use treats as a reward for going out to rebuild a positive association.
🎆Fireworks can last for more than just one night, so be prepared for unexpected fireworks going off into next week and how best to support your dog.
