Mountain Wags Newsletter #14: 4th of July Pet Tips

Happy Almost Independence Day!

Wishing you and your family (furry friends included) a happy and safe 4th of July!

Here are a Couple Summer Pet Tips to Keep in Mind:

2. With the unusually high temperatures in the mountains for us lately, it's advisable to take extra precaution when walking your dog on hot asphalt - the pavement can burn their paws faster than expected (see below graphic for specifics!).
