Taking my dog to city fireworks: Is it safe? What should I do?

Question

Doctor Leigh, I'm not going that far,we're only going out for a walk in the city and probably to watch the fireworks. Any advice on what should I do? Pet's info: Dog | Maltese | Female | unspayed | 3 years and 6 months old | 4 lbs

Dr. Leigh, DVM · Accepted Answer

If she is a dog that is afraid on fireworks than you should leave her at home. Some dogs are terrified of fireworks and it causes a lot of stress and anxiety. If she doesn't seem to be bothered by fireworks than you should be able to take her with you, just make sure she is secured on a leash so she can't get away from you, especially if there will be a lot of people.
