Your Pets and Halloween

Halloween is coming on fast. Hope you have your costumes ready. Now what about your pet? If you go so far as to dress your pet up be sure their vision is not obstructed. Same goes for the pet's movement. Be careful of easily chewed off pieces that your pet could choke on.

When kids come to the door it may be a good idea to keep your pet in a separate room. I knew a girl who let her dog run around free in the house while she was answering the door. Before she realized it, her pet was gone, never to be seen again. True story. She's still not sure if her dog ran away, or if someone took it. Needless to say, halloween has a different meaning for her.

Finally, watch out with pets and real jack-o-lanterns, or any lighted candle for that matter. In all the excitement, it's easy for a pet to get hurt or worse, hurt someone else.

Ok. Enough of that. Time for some more halloween candy. C'ya.
