BE MINDFUL OF YOUR FOUR LEGGED FRIENDS OVER NYE

Meanwhile we’re also being asked to be mindful of our four legged friends, during New Year’s Eve celebrations.

The RSPCA says the loud bangs of fireworks and the noise of neighbouring parties can be a stressful time for pets.

“You need to keep your dogs in a secure, quiet place preferably inside so in the laundry or garage, somewhere they feel secure and if you’re going to be out just make sure they’re securely locked away,” said Kerry Swift-McNair.

It’s also important to ensure your pet is registered, micro chipped and wearing a collar.
