Summer special – preparing for thunderstorms and fireworks

Listen Later

Along with fun and sun, summer also brings loud noises, courtesy of firework displays and thunderstorms. While many of us love seeing the sky light up in a technicolour wonderland, or as a result of Mother Nature, for our pets storms and pyrotechnics can cause a great deal of stress and anxiety.

On this edition of JOY’s very own show about pets, the Pets-A-Loud team is going to take a look at some of the things pet owners can do to help their pets stay calm during storms and fireworks this summer.
