Halloween safety for pets is often overlooked in the quest for the best costume and stocking up on treats. But pet owners should be mindful that costumes and treats both can pose life-threatening hazards for pets. Dr. Alex Fox-Alvarez, a small animal surgeon, will discuss some of the situations that can lead to foreign body surgery, an emergency that can be worse than scary and threaten to ruin everyone’s Halloween fun. In addition, he’ll touch on general safety practices to keep in mind during Halloween, whether you’re hosting trick-or-treaters at your home or going door-to-door to other households with your pet.
