THE CITY OF ALBUQUERQUE’S ANIMAL WELFARE DEPARTMENT USUALLY SEES AN INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF RUN-AWAY DOGS IT TAKES IN DURING THE FOURTH OF JULY HOLIDAY. DESIREE CAWLEY WITH ANIMAL WELFARE TELLS US IT’S BECAUSE PETS CAN GET VERY STRESSED DUE TO FIREWORKS. SHE ALSO SAYS IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE YOUR PET’S MICRO-CHIP INFORMATION IS UP TO DATE SO IT CAN BE RETURNED QUICKLY IF IT’S PICKED UP BY AN ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICER.
