Blizzards and Nor'easters pose special problems for pets. Keep your pets safe and sound during the next storm
by watching out for these hazards:
*Skis and snowboards. We've seen lacerations, ruptured tendons, and amputated toes from pets playing too close to this equipment.
*Snowplows. Getting hit by a car is bad enough, but dog/cat vs. snowplow is almost always a victory for the plow. Best to keep pets on a leash or inside when the plows are on the road.
*Snow shovels. Shovels have sharp edges, especially when the snow is flying.
*Ice melting chemicals. Make sure the stuff you use to melt ice is safe for pets.
