National Pet Fire Safety Day is observed worldwide every July 15. Established by the American Kennel Club (AKC) and ADT Security Services in 2009, this day aims to educate pet owners about fire safety measures to protect their pets from home fires. Each year, an estimated 500,000 pets are affected by such incidents, highlighting the importance of including pets in fire prevention planning. Pet owners are encouraged to take additional precautions, such as securing pets away from fire hazards, preparing disaster supply kits, and using pet alert window stickers to inform firefighters about pets inside their homes. The observance also promotes sharing safety tips with other pet owners and engaging on social media using hashtags like #NationalPetFireSafetyDay.
