Practice Firework Safety&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Restrict your pet&#x2019;s access to the immediate or adjacent area where fireworks are being set off. Also, keep your pet indoors in a quiet, cool, isolated part of your home.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Put on your pet&#x2019;s favorite television program &#x2014; &lt;em&gt;Animal Planet&lt;/em&gt; anyone? &#x2014; or play music to further mask firework sounds.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If needed, confine your pet to a comfortable &lt;a href=&#8221;https://amzn.to/3dBzebc&#8221; onclick=&#8221;javascript:_gaq.push([&#8216;_trackEvent&#8217;,&#8217;outbound-article&#8217;,&#8217;http://amzn.to&#8217;]);&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; rel=&#8221;noopener&#8221;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;crate&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; to prevent them from escaping through open doors, lunging at windows, or eating inappropriate materials, which all can occur as manifestations of anxiety.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&#8221;pb-in-article-content&#8221;&gt;&lt;div id=&#8221;evolve_ad_gpt_widget-32&#8243; class=&#8221;widget_evolve_ad_gpt_widget&#8221;&gt;&lt;div id=&#8221;&#8221;&gt;&lt;div id=&#8221;pb_prebidjs_300x250_c_1625153804&#8243;<br /> data-id=&#8221;pb_prebidjs_300x250_c_1625153804&#8243;<br /> data-offset=&#8221;300&#8243;<br /> class=&#8221;gpt-ad js-inview&#8221;&gt;&lt;script type=&#8217;text/javascript&#8217;&gt;if (typeof readAdmiralCookie === &#8220;function&#8221;){admiral_status = readAdmiralCookie();}if (typeof getAdmiral === &#8220;function&#8221;){admiral_status = getAdmiral(&#8220;admiral_status&#8221;);}if ((&#8216;undefined&#8217; === typeof ezoicTestActive || true !== ezoicTestActive) &amp;&amp;<br /> (&#8216;undefined&#8217; === typeof admiral_status || true !== admiral_status)) {PB = PB || {};PB.gptStandAlone = PB.gptStandAlone || {};PB.gptAutoRefresh = PB.gptAutoRefresh || {&#8216;gptAds&#8217;:[], &#8216;gptStandAlone&#8217;:[]};googletag.cmd.push(function() {var standAloneSizeMapping = googletag.sizeMapping().addSize([0, 0], [[300, 250]]).addSize([750, 0], []).addSize([980, 0], []).build();PB.gptStandAlone[&#8216;pb_prebidjs_300x250_c_1625153804&#8217;] = googletag.defineSlot(&#8216;/4403/th/dogtime/howto&#8217;, [[300, 250]], &#8216;pb_prebidjs_300x250_c_1625153804&#8217;)<br /> .defineSizeMapping(standAloneSizeMapping).addService(googletag.pubads())<br /> .setTargeting(&#8216;pos&#8217;, &#8216;C&#8217;).setTargeting(&#8216;ct&#8217;, &#8216;article&#8217;).setTargeting(&#8216;ci&#8217;, &#8216;9117&#8217;).setTargeting(&#8216;content_detail&#8217;, &#8216;1&#8217;).setTargeting(&#8216;kw&#8217;, &#8216;4th-of-july,cover-panel,expert,fireworks,holiday,july,pet-safety,pet-safety,in-article-mobile&#8217;).setTargeting(&#8216;coppa&#8217;, &#8216;0&#8217;).setTargeting(&#8216;site&#8217;, &#8216;dogtime&#8217;);googletag.enableServices();googletag.display(&#8216;pb_prebidjs_300x250_c_1625153804&#8217;);googletag.pubads().refresh([PB.gptStandAlone[&#8216;pb_prebidjs_300x250_c_1625153804&#8217;]]);});}&lt;/script&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h2&gt;2.

Promote Calmness With Natural Products Or Medications&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Give your pet a dose of a safe, over-the-counter, stress-relieving product, such as &lt;a href=&#8221;https://amzn.to/3dE02Hw&#8221; onclick=&#8221;javascript:_gaq.push([&#8216;_trackEvent&#8217;,&#8217;outbound-article&#8217;,&#8217;http://amzn.to&#8217;]);&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; rel=&#8221;noopener&#8221;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rescue Remedy Pet&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, one to two hours before a potentially distressing event.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If Rescue Remedy doesn&#x2019;t provide sufficient calming, then ask your veterinarian to prescribe an appropriate sedative or anxiety relieving medication.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Acepromazine is a commonly used animal sedative, yet it does not have anxiolytic (anxiety relieving) properties. Alprazolam, commonly known as Xanax, is an anxiolytic and mild sedative.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;4. Be Cautious With Festive Pet Adornments&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;div id=&#8221;attachment_87959&#8243; style=&#8221;width: 690px&#8221; class=&#8221;wp-caption alignnone&#8221;&gt;&lt;img class=&#8221;wp-image-87959&#8243; src=&#8221;https://dogtime.com/assets/uploads/2018/06/4th-of-july-pet-safety-2.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;An Australian shepherd dog wears a red, white and blue costume for a Fourth of July parade.&#8221; width=&#8221;680&#8243; height=&#8221;385&#8243; srcset=&#8221;https://www.dogtime.com/assets/uploads/2018/06/4th-of-july-pet-safety-2.jpg 760w, https://www.dogtime.com/assets/uploads/2018/06/4th-of-july-pet-safety-2-150&#215;85.jpg 150w, https://www.dogtime.com/assets/uploads/2018/06/4th-of-july-pet-safety-2-650&#215;368.jpg 650w, https://www.dogtime.com/assets/uploads/2018/06/4th-of-july-pet-safety-2-227&#215;128.jpg 227w, https://www.dogtime.com/assets/uploads/2018/06/4th-of-july-pet-safety-2-311&#215;175.jpg 311w&#8221; sizes=&#8221;(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px&#8221;&gt;&lt;p class=&#8221;wp-caption-text&#8221;&gt;&lt;/img&gt; (Picture Credit: Patricia Marroquin/Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;Like Halloween, 4th of July holiday costumes are not necessarily accepted by all pets. Obviously, you should never force your pet to wear &lt;a href=&#8221;https://amzn.to/2Ti6kJ5&#8243; onclick=&#8221;javascript:_gaq.push([&#8216;_trackEvent&#8217;,&#8217;outbound-article&#8217;,&#8217;http://amzn.to&#8217;]);&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; rel=&#8221;noopener&#8221;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;a costume&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; if they resist your attempts at playing dress up.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Even if your pet readily accepts decoration, don&#x2019;t leave them unobserved, as fabrics can uncomfortably constrict tissue, get caught in body parts, like the mouth or legs, or be ingested upon your pet&#x2019;s attempted removal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;5. Avoid Dietary Indiscretion&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Summertime gatherings generally lend to the preparation of festive foods on which people feel compelled to gorge themselves as a representation of their American pride. Unfortunately, our pets are of similar minds and will also readily dive into a plate of celebratory foods.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, permitting your pet to partake in holiday appetizers, main courses, or desserts can alter their normal feeding patterns and cause digestive imbalances.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Additionally, keep all trash completely inaccessible to your pet&#x2019;s snooping snout. Potentially life threatening illness can ensue should your pet engage in some holiday dietary indiscretion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How are you keeping your dog safe this Independence Day?
