Scare Off Seasonal Worries and Halloween Havoc in Your Pets

Between unexpected visitors ringing doorbells and excess candy floating around, Halloween has the potential to cause anxiety and serious harm to your pet.

To a pet accustomed to a serene, quiet environment, even the shrieks of excited children can send them into a tizzy. Particularly if you have plans to leave your house for the evening, a constantly buzzing doorbell or knocking without your comfort could be a cause for panic… leading to wetting accidents, anxiety and potentially even frightening an older dog into a heart attack. Be sure to have a plan of action ready for such scenarios, whether you choose to have a companion stay with your pet for the evening, or give them a natural remedy to soothe their nerves and promote calmness. Placing your pet in a quiet room as far away from your front door as possible and securing him or her with comforting toys or blankets, can also help.

PetCalm™ - Effective tonic for pet nervous system and harmony

PetCalm Benefits:

• To quickly provide support for the nervous system
• To soothe the nerves in pets and maintain emotional balance and confidence
• To help your pet cope during difficult times
• To maintain calm during Halloween, fireworks and other frightening occasions

Also be sure to walk your dog before trick-or-treaters begin visiting to help avoid accidents, and keep a firm grip on the leash, as many dogs are frightened by costumes.

If you normally leave your dog outdoors, consider crating him or her indoors for the evening or at least bring them into the garage (but beware of hazards). On top of trick-or-treaters frightening and agitating them, taunting, poisonings and pet thefts are also risks that can be avoided by removing your pet from areas of high activity.

Remember to be especially cautious of candy and wrappers, and make sure dogs can't get into the trash. Candles, jack-o-lanterns, decorations or ornaments are also potential choking or health hazards, so be cognizant of your pet being alone with these items.

Be aware of unusual behavior in your pet. Chocolate poisoning symptoms include excessive drooling, excessive urination, pupil dilation, rapid heartbeat, vomiting and diarrhea, hyperactivity, muscle tremors and seizures. Consult your vet or emergency center immediately.

Here’s to a safe and Happy Halloween!
