Even the calmest of pets can get overwhelmed by the excitement of a stream of strangers ringing the bell. Your pet could easily slip out the door and run off. Make sure your microchip information is up to date and make sure to wear proper identification tags. Avoid dangerous decorations like candles. Keep your candy away from your pups only give treats specifically for dogs.
