Wishing everyone a fun and safe Halloween today. 🎃👻💀

Don’t forget a few important details on your checklist!

✅ ID tags
✅ Early, pre-trick-or-treater walks
✅ Store candy in a safe place
✅ Create a quiet zone in your home, away from from the door
✅ Leave the tv or calm music on

If your pet ingests anything of concern tonight, call Pet Poison Helpline or ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center.

A few easy steps will create a fun night for everyone. Enjoy! 🍬
