🧅 Holiday tip: Onions, garlic, and leeks can be toxic to pets. A whole onion can make a dog sick, and even a small amount can harm cats. If your pet eats any, contact your vet or a poison control center right away.

Happy Halloween!

Make it fun, not frightful, for pets:

🍫 Keep candy out of reach (chocolate & xylitol = toxic)
🔔 Collars & tags on
🐶 Leash greeters at the door
👗 Safe, comfy costumes
🕯️ Pet-proof décor

Stay safe and have a great night!
