Don't tie your dog up outside while fireworks are being let off, eg outside a shop while you pop inside, or leave them in the garden or alone in the car. Keep them indoors when fireworks are being let off. If you have to leave your house during firework season and come home to find your dog has been destructive or toileted, don’t get angry with them. This won’t help and will also make your dog more stressed. Always keep your dog indoors when fireworks are being let off. Keep your dog on-lead if you think fireworks will be let off.

Stay with your dog. Your pooch could panic if left alone. Having you or someone they know and trust for company will help them relax. Don’t go out after dark. Make sure you’re cosy inside and settled well before any fireworks start. Never force your dog outside during fireworks. Check your house and garden are escape-proof. Your dog could try to run away if they’re scared so check your doors, windows and fences are secure.
