As temperatures drop during the winter months, it's important to take extra precautions to keep your furry friends safe and warm.

One of the most important things you can do is bring your pets inside and keep them there until the weather improves.

If you must take them outside, protect their paws with booties or paw wax, and make sure their coat and skin are well-maintained.

Be aware that antifreeze is a deadly poison, so keep it out of reach of your pets.

Know your pet's limits outdoors and watch for signs of hypothermia. Additionally, be cautious when using space heaters and always check your car engine before starting it to make sure no animals are hiding inside to stay warm.
