National Pet Fire Safety Day takes place every year on July 15th.  This is a day to learn how to keep your pet safe in a fire. Pets are a precious asset and it is important that we dedicate a day to keeping them safe should a scary event happen. 

Here are some facts about pets and fires:

Pets cause over 1,000 house fires each year in the United States. It is important to make sure that there is nothing nearby them that can start a fire. 

Did you know that there are nearly 360,000 house fires each year in the United States? That is a lot of fire and damage; it is important to prevent fires whenever possible. 

Over 40,000 pets die every year in house fires; it can be scary and devastating for many. Awareness can save lives, just having a plan should a fire arise is critical. 

The best tip should a fire arise in your home or business, is to have an escape plan that includes your pets. Discuss who will be in charge of rescuing your pet in the event of a fire. Practicing fire drills can help your family,  but also ensures your pets are not forgotten.
