Halloween seems to herald the arrival of autumn and all the things we associate with the season: pumpkin scented candles, jack o’ lanterns, colorful leaves, and sweater weather. Dressing up in a creepy, cute, or funny Halloween costume is one of the best ways to celebrate this time of year – and what could be better than dressing up your furry, four-legged friend as well?
The team at Berkeley Veterinary Center love our pet trick-or-treaters and want to help you create the safest, most enjoyable night for your best friend. Here are some of our Halloween pet costume safety tips for an awesome evening.
As a culture, we’ve become accustomed to seeing household pets that err a bit on the rotund side. While this makes for excellent snuggles and adorable pictures, fat isn’t any healthier for our four-legged friends than it is for us. In fact, your friends at Berkeley Veterinary Center feel that pet weight management is an important part of good pet ownership.
