If you still have fireworks sitting around after the Fourth of July weekend, Michigan officials say there are a few important things you need to know before cleaning them up.
Loud fireworks can trigger severe anxiety in pets. Michigan’s State Veterinarian advises keeping animals secure and using distractions like TV. Flint enforces fireworks curfews to protect people and animals.
Fireworks are a blast until they land you with a $1,000 fine. Michigan has some strict laws around when, where, and how you can use them—just in time for the 4th of July weekend.
You already know dogs may not enjoy Fourth of July fireworks as much as you do. But be aware, more pets go missing July 4 - 6 than any other time of the year.
