Martin and Brigitte Noonan of A1-K9 Boarding Kennels & Training Centre, Knockraha, Co Cork, give a timely reminder to all dog owners to be extra vigilant and responsible by keeping their dogs indoors and safe over the Hallowe'en holiday.

Dogs do not like fireworks, loud bangs or even thunder and lightening, and every year during Hallowe'en (or New Year) celebrations many dogs get such a fright that they take off and keep running without aim, often for miles and miles. When dogs go missing they are in great panic and distress because they do not know how to find their way home.

Make sure your dog is safe by keeping it in the house. If you have to go out on Halloween night and leave the dog alone in the house, pull the curtains and put on the radio or TV to mask the noise of the fireworks. Do not assume your dog is safe in an outside run, in a panic a dog can jump/climb very high fences.
