There is lots of activity down here in Rehoboth Beach, this weekend. People are enjoying the beach, shops and restaurants in downtown Rehoboth. Our pets get a chance to be with family and friends outside, running, walking and enjoying the good life.

If you’re having a cookout, make sure you keep your pets safe. Karla’s Pet Care.com has outlined some tips to remember if you’re having a cookout.

• Keep dogs away from plates of food left out.
• Keep garbage locked up or far away from pets.
• Make sure your pet stays hydrated and cool in the heat.
• Update your pet’s tags and/or microchips.
• Let guests know to avoid giving your dog table scraps.
• Monitor their interactions with children.
• Keep fences and doors closed to avoid escape.
• Keep an eye on your pet if they are tethered on a leash, they can easily get tangled up.
• Secure pets in safe & cool places as needed.
• Watch for signs of overheating or heatstroke.

Have a great holiday with your pets!

Remember, your pets count!
