As the 4th of July weekend approaches, United Animal Friends (UAF) announces its "Collar Up" campaign. During 4th of July celebrations many dogs and cats go missing each year because fireworks send them into a panic. The best solution is to keep pets safely inside. However, if Fido runs off, a good fitting collar with ID tags and micro-chipping will improve his chances of a fast and safe reunion with his family. A permanent black marker can also be used to write his family name and phone number on a collar.
Anyone wishing to donate or pick up a gently-used collar can go to a UAF weekly adoption event, Saturdays, 8 A.M. – Noon , at Prescott Farmers Market at Yavapai College ; or Sundays, Noon–3 P.M., at Petco in Prescott. (Special thanks to Andrea and Krys for the write-up and organization!) For more information call UAF at 928-778-2924.
