MONCTON, New Brunswick - s4story -- Halloween can be an exciting evening for families, but an unfamiliar doorbell, costumed visitors, and treats within reach can make it a different experience for a new puppy. Puppy Starter Plan is sharing resources to help owners plan a safer, calmer first Halloween with their puppy.

The website's Halloween safety guide walks owners through practical ways to prepare their home and routine before October 31. It encourages families to keep candy away from curious puppies, put decorations out of reach, and consider how to manage the front door when trick-or-treaters arrive.

The guide also suggests preparing a quiet space where a puppy can relax away from visitors and activity. Keeping familiar routines, including bathroom breaks and bedtime, can help owners plan an evening that works for their puppy.

For families considering a Halloween outfit, Puppy Starter Plan's companion costume article offers ideas alongside a reminder to consider comfort and fit. An outfit should allow a puppy to move comfortably and should be removed if the puppy seems distressed or uncomfortable. Puppies can take part in the season without wearing a costume.
