Harmonizing Halloween and Hounds: Navigating the Night with Furry Friends

Published by Kelvin Copper on 24/10/2023

As the moon rises and pumpkins flicker, Halloween transforms neighbourhoods into a whimsical wonderland. Yet, for our canine companions, this eerie extravaganza can be a tad perplexing. To ensure a tail-wagging time for both two-legged and four-legged family members, consider these pointers.

Firstly, attire amicably. While dressing up is de rigueur, let’s not forget our furry friends. Opt for costumes that are comfortable, allowing them to move freely without constriction. A jaunty bandana or festive collar might suffice if Fido isn’t feeling fancy.

Next, ‘paws’ for reflection on decorations. Steer clear of placing anything hazardous in their path, and be mindful of candles and wires. Substituting with LED candles and hiding wires will keep curious canines out of mischief’s reach.

Lastly, ‘trick or treat’ strategically. Keep canine candies at bay. Chocolate and certain sweets can be toxic for dogs. Instead, offer pet-friendly treats or perhaps prepare a special spooky snack to keep them entertained.

This Halloween, let’s make sure our canine companions are part of the festivities, with tails wagging and paws prancing in delight. Happy Haunting!
