DeWitt County Animal Rescue Non-Profit Encouraging Responsibility With Pets This Weekend

With the 4th of July falling on a weekend, the celebration of our country's independence will undoubtedly get rowdy in some places.

 

With that in mind, DeWitt County Second Chance for Pets is asking pet owners to keep their fury friends in mind. Heather Wantland implores pet owners who know their pets do not like fireworks or loud noises to simply leave pets home and provide background noise to minimize the booms and screeches heard.

 

 

Calls for runaway pets precipitously increase during the Fourth of July holiday. Wantland says to make sure your pets are secure somewhere safe because you never know where or whom your pet may end up with if they run away.

 

 

Wantland indicates not only do authorities get inundated with calls for lost pets but the Second Chance voice mailbox and Facebook messenger account receive numerous calls seeking help.
