With summer just around the corner, June is the perfect time of year to begin preparing for outdoor activities with your pets! Here are a couple of activities and tips to keep your pets safe:

Camping

It's a good idea to have your dog's vaccines up to date, a vaccine certificate, and current contact information on their ID tag in the case of emergency.

Bring an extra leash or long line and a stake, so that if the campground requires dogs to be on leash you don't have to hold it the whole time.

Build a pet first aid kit! This is something that can be easily forgotten on camping trips, but is greatly appreciated if your dog becomes injured and you don't have a veterinarian close by. It should include items like tweezers, small scissors, bandaging materials, and alcohol wipes.
