Tips for Keeping Pets Comfortable & Safe at Events
Costume Comfort: If your pup wears a costume, keep it simple and non-restrictive. Let them try it at home first.
Leash & Control: Even friendly dogs need leashes. In crowded areas, use a shorter leash to keep them safe.
Hydration & Comfort: Bring fresh water, a collapsible bowl, and shade or cooling gear if it’s a warm day.
Vaccine & ID Preparedness: Ensure rabies, DHLPP, and other required shots are current. Have your dog’s ID tag on at all times.
Watch for Overstimulation: Loud noises, crowds, music — some dogs get stressed. Give them a break or quiet zone if needed.
Always Clean Up: Carry waste bags; be courteous to other attendees and event staff.
