Halloween is fun for us but stressful for pets. 🎃 Purdue’s Center for Animal Welfare Science shares tips: make a quiet space, bring outdoor pets inside, and keep candy out of reach. A calm pet is a happy pet!

Happy Halloween!

Make it fun, not frightful, for pets:

🍫 Keep candy out of reach (chocolate & xylitol = toxic)
🔔 Collars & tags on
🐶 Leash greeters at the door
👗 Safe, comfy costumes
🕯️ Pet-proof décor

Stay safe and have a great night!

Chocolate is toxic to dogs, especially dark or baking chocolate. Even a few ounces can cause serious illness. Keep #Halloween candy out of reach and call your vet if your pet gets into it.
