Tips for Pet Safety This Fall
While you may enjoy spending time with your pet in the fall foliage, there are some things you may need to be wary of as autumn approaches. Our team at Chandler Animal Clinic in Chandler understands the significance of caring for your pet all year long. Our veterinarian, Dr. Natosha Provence, is here to help you take care of your horses, cats, dogs, and other pets as the weather changes.
Maintain a Safe Exercise Routine
If you are not able to walk your pet due to the weather, you might consider having a dog walker come over daily. Our veterinarian recommends outside time each day to make sure that your pet gets exercise. Remember that some animals, like snakes, may be more common in the fall. If you do spend time outside, make sure to keep an eye out for snakes.
Continue Your Pet’s Fur Maintenance Routine
Part of taking care of your pet's fur is checking for ticks and other insects. Preventative care can make it easy to avoid dealing with infestations. We can recommend some products to help your pet avoid these common pests.
Provide Adequate Warmth
As the weather cools, it is important to provide your pet with the warmth it needs to avoid illness or injuries this winter. Blankets and even booties for your pet's feet can help provide warmth. Furthermore, you should consider letting your pet keep its winter coat for extra warmth.
