🇺🇸 Happy (almost) 4th of July, everyone! 🎆 As we come together to celebrate Independence Day, let’s make sure we have a fun and safe holiday. Here are some tips to keep in mind: 1) Fireworks Safety: Only use legal fireworks and follow all local laws. Keep a bucket of water or a hose nearby, and never relight a dud firework. 2) Grill with Care: Make sure your grill is on a flat surface away from structures, and never leave it unattended. Keep children and pets away from the grill area. 3) Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water, especially if you’re spending time outdoors. Remember to apply sunscreen regularly to protect your skin. 4) Responsible Drinking: If you’re drinking alcohol, do so responsibly. Never drink and drive – designate a sober driver or use a rideshare service. 5) Pet Safety: Fireworks can be scary for pets. Keep them indoors and create a safe, quiet space for them to relax. 6) First Aid Kit: Have a basic first aid kit on hand for any minor injuries or accidents. Let’s enjoy the festivities while looking out for one another. And if your neighbors party a little too loud, hard, and long this week, contact me to help you have new ones by this time next year! Have a spectacular and safe 4th of July! 🇺🇸🎇 #Happy4th #IndependenceDay #StaySafe #realestate #HoustonRealEstate #NextHome #NextHomeRealtyCenter

Happy American Independence Day. Some celebrate with fireworks, barbecues, and family gatherings, while others stay at home. Whatever your plans, it’s likely that your dog will need extra care to cope with July 4th celebrations. Tips for Keeping Your Dog Safe and Calm: • Create a Safe Space: Set up a quiet, comfortable area where your dog can retreat from the noise and commotion (see last month’s Training Tidbit).. • Stay Calm and Reassuring: Your dog takes cues from you, so staying calm and comforting can help ease their anxiety. • Avoid Fireworks: Keep your dog indoors during fireworks displays to prevent them from getting scared and running away. • Identification: Check that your dog has up-to-date identification tags and is microchipped, just in case they get frightened and run off. • Exercise Earlier: Give your dog plenty of exercise earlier in the day to help them relax in the evening. • Distract and Soothe: Use toys, chews, or calming music to distract and soothe your dog during loud events. • Add white noise such as fans and air conditioning units, as well as white noise generating apps, and turn on TV or radio for additional masking sound. Let's make this July 4th enjoyable and stress-free for everyone, two-legged and four. Happy Independence Day! #Happy4thOfJuly #IndependenceDay #DogCare #JoyfulDog #VirginiaDogTrainer #DogTrainer #TimetoTrain
