Many of us might find ourselves a little overwhelmed at this time of the year with EVERYTHING that NEEDS to get done. With that in mind, we are encouraging you to take a moment to consider staying safe. Let’s face it, no one wants to be told what they should or should not do but when it comes to safety, sometimes it pays to take the time to listen (or in this case, read).
Summit County Farm Bureau board member, Rodger Ramsthaler has given us some great fire safety tips.

As important as it is to keep yourself safe, it is just as important to keep your pets safe. Every year, thousands of furry members of the family find themselves in dire situations that require a visit to the emergency veterinarian clinic.
Seasonal plants and decorations can be an interesting attraction for those four legged family members – too bad they can’t read the “DANGER” signs. And many well- meaning guests are unaware of the many holiday food dangers that could certainly put your pet in distress.
Print off this great “stay away” list that Jeni Hren-Gaffney put together for us and post it where all can see.
