Thanksgiving Pet Safety It’s not just your health and safety to consider on Thanksgiving, the holiday can present safety hazards for your pets too. Try not to change their regular eating/walking routine and be sure not to feed them any leftovers. Much of what we eat can be damaging to their health. Most importantly, make sure they’re wearing their identification. Guests coming in and out of the home give pets a perfect escape opportunity. |

And he's offering a second chance to work on the clue for week six. Take some time to explore our parks this weekend and submit your answers for weeks one through six. We have lots of Weston swag to give away!
