What are the best ways to keep my dog safe in a thunderstorm?
assistant
1. Make sure your dog is wearing a collar with identification tags and that it is up to date with its rabies vaccination.
2. Keep your dog inside during the storm, if possible.
3. If you can't keep your dog inside, provide a safe place indoors like a bathroom or an enclosed porch.
4. Monitor your dog closely for any signs of stress or anxiety, such as pacing, panting, trembling, or hiding.
5. Avoid leaving your dog outside during the storm unless there is a secure area where it can be kept.
6. If your dog does go outside during the storm, make sure it has a leash and stay close by.
