Dog Safety
Fill your dog’s water bowl often.
Think about shade, is your dog too hot/cold!
Be sure to have lots of treats on hand to reward them for being well-behaved or to divert their attention if they get too excited.
Be on the lookout for picnic scraps such as chicken bones and other litter that could harm your dog.
Be prepared to leave early. If you notice your dog is uncomfortable or having a hard time settling down, it’s best to pack up and call it a day. Although you may be a bit disappointed, your dog’s safety and wellbeing always come first.
NEVER EVER leave your dog in a vehicle.
NEVER EVER leave your dog unattended.
