Our July 4th festivities include picnics, parades and fireworks displays — and we'll be taking our pets along with us for as many events as we can. And while we're celebrating America's birthday, our pets will be showing their patriotic side with some cool holiday-themed products. We've found collars, bowls, beds and everything in between, all with a truly American twist.
And don't forget: Never leave pets alone with anything that can be chewed or ingested and carefully check the quality and safety of all pet products, particularly those that are handmade.
