Stay home. Firework noises are scary and unfamiliar, don’t leave your pet alone with them.

If your pet seems unsettled, use their favourite toy or game to distract them.

Happy Halloween!

If you are unsure if your pet needs to be seen straight away, please call us to discuss. Charlton 01264 358808 Ludgershall 01264 790609
