As we celebrate Independence Day, the City of Dalhart Police Department would like to wish everyone a safe and happy Fourth of July!

As a reminder, fireworks within the Dalhart city limits are illegal. Fireworks pose a significant fire risk, can cause serious injuries and often create distress for veterans, young children and pets.

If you choose to celebrate with fireworks, please do only in areas they are legally permitted and follow safety guidelines.

Don’t forget about your furry family members: keep pets indoors in a secure, comfortable area, ensure they have updated identification tags or microchip information. Close windows and doors to help frightened pets from escaping and consider playing music or television to help mask loud noises.

Together, we can make this Independence Day safe and enjoyable for everyone in the community.

Have a safe and happy Fourth of July Dalhart!
