🔥 It’s that time again… fire season!🔥

Please consider these important tips to be proactive and help spread the word within our community about how to be prepared for a wildfire as it pertains to your pets:

-have a game plan with friends and neighbors to get your own pets out
-have important documents and pet supplies/meds easily accessible in the event of urgent evacuation
-have a key in a lockbox separate from your home’s electricity (power is cut to affected homes)
-know that our county has an evacuation team in place, SCART, in the event you need help evacuating your animals.
