Protect Your Pets This July 4th: Key Tips from El Paso Animal Services

As the July 4th holiday approaches, El Paso Animal Services warns that this time of year sees a significant increase in lost pets, with shelters already overwhelmed with over 1,000 animals. Spokesperson Julieanne Newbold emphasizes the need for pet owners to secure their pets indoors during fireworks, which can cause extreme anxiety. To help, the city is offering free microchipping and ID tags this week, as well as $2.50 pet adoptions until July 4. Owners are encouraged to keep doors and gates closed and to consider calming aids for anxious pets.
