I know a few cats who became nervous wrecks too, over the 4th of July Holiday. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide!

Get your dog microchipped.

A QR collar/tag will make it easy for any one with a QR enabled smartphone to look up the dog online.

Its easy to reunite a lost pet. If it doesn’t have ID, its lost for good.

Our neighborhood is notorious for it's fireworks. Most New Year's and July 4ths resemble downtown Baghdad during Desert Storm. Unfortunately we're in the county with no bans. Our lab used to be terrified of them. I like firework displays done by professionals, but not the ones done by beer drinking bubbas in a subdivision where the houses are 10 feet away from each other and they go on until 2 in the morning. If they lived in the country with no close neighbors it would be different.

Poor babies. If only they’d been brought inside, they wouldn’t have been lost.

I was worried about how my 5 month old puppy would do with the fireworks. Once they started, she wanted to go outside to listen to them. I was amazed.

I once lived in a three story victorian house. We were all outside on Independence Day - in the front yard and the dog was inside because he hates fire works. Suddenly he appeared next to me - he jumped through the screen on a third floor window. He was okay. He broke his fall on the porch roof.
