With fireworks lighting up the skies on Bonfire Night, Diwali and New Year’s Eve soon after, it can be a stressful time for dogs that don’t like loud noises. How can you help keep them calm and safe?
Leader of the Council, Cllr Warren Morgan, is backing calls from the RSCPCA to keep pets safe this Bonfire Night. Firework whistles, bangs and screeches can be very stressful for animals, with RSPCA research showing 45 per cent of dogs may be fearful of fireworks.
