THIS WEEK AT MCHS:

Happy 4th of July! The County Shelter will be open regular operating hours Friday, July 3rd and Sunday July 5th. We will closed to the public on Saturday, July 4th.

Summer’s in full swing -- take your pet’s health to heart with these safety tips:

DO:

• Make sure your pets always wear identification.

• Protect your pets against fleas and ticks.

DON’T:

• Leave your pet in the car, which can lead to heatstroke and may be fatal! See an animal in heat distress? Call the MCHS emergency line immediately: 240.773.5900.

• Take your pet to July 4th festivities with noisy fireworks.
