What are the main safety threats to pets in Arkansas?

Venomous snakes like the Western Diamondback Rattlesnake and Coral Snake are a concern, so be cautious on hikes by keeping your dog leashed and aware of their surroundings. Black bears in the Ozark and Ouachita forests, though generally shy, can pose a risk if approached, so steer clear and keep dogs close.
Flash floods and tornadoes are real dangers in Arkansas as well. Always monitor weather alerts and have an emergency plan for your pets, including carriers, leashes, and ID tags. Remember, keeping calm during these events can help your furry companions stay calm, too.
