I just wanted to write a quick reminder about making sure you keep candy and candy wrappers out of your pet's reach during the Halloween season. This also means making sure your children are well aware that some candies are toxic to pets and can be fatal if ingested.

A couple of articles highlighting specific dangers all pet owners should be aware of are found on the Pet Poison Helpline.
