Animals and July 4th Fireworks
If you have a dog, cat, or other pet, you may not be looking forward to the 4th of July! My dog Suzie is 15 years old and getting pretty deaf, so she does not hear the fireworks so much, but in the past, when she did, it was very unsettling for her. Many pets find the 4th of July the most anxiety-ridden and frightening time of year. On those days, having essences on hand to support your furry friends can help them remain calm and feel safe and protected.
- Spray your house with Guardian ‘Healthy Boundaries’ to help animals feel safer inside.
- Place four Soul Support ‘Emergency Formula’ drops in their drinking water starting a few days before and even after the 4th. You can also place drops on their food or a treat. See if they want to lick a few drops from your hand. Some animals don’t mind the flavor.
- Use the Soul Support spray for extra support, as animals may not drink water or want treats when agitated and upset.
- Spray pet beds with Animal Care ‘Rescue Formula’, as it is their safest refuge.
