How to Keep Your Pets Calm During Fourth of July Fireworks
Fireworks may be fun for us, but they can be frightening for our pets. Studies show that up to 50% of dogs and 25% of cats experience anxiety from loud noises like fireworks—making the Fourth of July one of the most stressful days of the year for them.

Dogs: Panting, shaking, barking, hiding, or trying to escape

Simple Ways to Soothe Your Pet
