Do you go all out with early holiday decor, or do you like to wait until closer to the season? 🎄 We’re team “decorate early” over here! Adding festive cheer in November just makes those long, dark winter days feel a little brighter and cozier. 🕯️ Whenever you decide to decorate, don’t forget to keep an eye on your pets—especially curious puppies or kittens! Shiny ornaments and twinkling lights might look like irresistible toys to them. Also, if you’ve added outdoor decorations, remember that puppies or dogs who haven’t been exposed to them before might find them a little spooky. Help your pup feel confident by giving them time to check out the decorations at their own pace, rewarding calm behaviour with treats or praise. A little patience goes a long way toward helping them adjust! Celebrate and encourage the good behaviour your pet shows around your holiday setup, and hey, there’s no shame in building a little fortress around the tree if needed. 😅

In addition, Christmas elk sleighs are also often used as holiday decorations in commercial places (such as shopping malls, restaurants, etc.), becoming a highlight to attract customers and add to the festive atmosphere.
