AUSTIN (KXAN) -- It's the time of the year when we have to pay a little extra attention to our puppies and kittens who are afraid of the loud noises from fireworks. Some four-footed friends have no issue dealing with the fireworks, but there are others who are frightened by the ruckus.
There are several things pet owners can do to help their animals fare better on July 4. KXAN's Rich Segal spoke with Dr. Kelly Hopkins from Bluebonnet Animal Hospital about how we can do an efficient job of keeping our pets safe.
