Everything you need to know about Halloween and how to protect your beloved pets.
Although Halloween has been popular in America for many years, it has only been a few years since its popularity reached Greece, and in fact, there are quite a few who celebrate it. It may be characterized as a foreign celebration, but no occasion for a little joy and fun should go to waste. So even if you live in Greece - and not in America - do not rule out the last day of October from encountering pumpkins, scary appearances and delicious snacks. Besides, many parties with this theme are now organized.
A few words about Halloween
As you may already know, Halloween is a Celtic custom that is celebrated not only in America but also in other parts of the world. The night of October 31st invites groups of children and families to wear scary costumes and knock on doors saying "Trick or Treat" in order to fill their baskets with countless sweets. However, Halloween has been associated with paranormal experiences and crimes that have even inspired horror films.
Halloween and pets
Halloween can be a fun day for us and our children, but it can be very stressful for our pets. The strange noises, the spooky decorations in the houses, and the unusual costumes of people are likely to create anxiety in our dogs and make them afraid. Dogs have also been observed to eat large amounts of forbidden foods (such as chocolate) because they find them easily available in the house.
Halloween: How to protect your dog
Costume: More and more Halloween fans are choosing to dress their dogs in a scary costume. However, this decision requires caution. Make sure your dog is comfortable and that his costume does not contain small parts that he could swallow.
Treats: Many of the Halloween treats and chocolates on the market are toxic to dogs. So if you've filled the house with treats and chocolates, make sure your dog can't get to them. And if you go out for a walk, pay close attention to what he might find and eat along the way.
Decoration: You also need to be careful with the decoration of your home. Make sure that your dog does not cause any damage, no matter how lively he is. For example, lit candles may cause a fire with a sudden movement.
