Megan Brezovar with the Greenhill Humane Society in Eugene said securing pets is vital.
“It’s a dangerous time for animals because when they do flee, they go missing, and we see a lot of lost-and-found animals during the 4th of July time,” Brezovar said. “The best thing that every pet owner could do is be preventative; put their animals in a safe, cool place.”
