How can you win? Once you get to the Morton Salt Facebook page,  LIKE them, and then write on their wall your pet's name and how you plan to keep them warm this winter. Then send an email to  contests@fidofriendly.com with the subject line MORTON and tell us you entered to win a Morton Safe-T-Pet Winter Readiness Kit. That's it.  

 FIDO Friendly will give away TEN kits on December 29, 2011. We will notify all winners within 5 days of contest close.  

 The ASPCA and Morton offer these guidelines for winter pet safety:

  • Keep anti-freeze stored on high shelves in sealed containers, and quickly clean any spills or leakage;
  • Limit outdoor time for pets when temperatures drop below freezing;
  • Use a pet-friendly (salt-free and chloride-free) ice melter such as Morton® Safe-T-Pet® in areas where pets walk;
  • Check warm spots on cars, such as hoods, where animals might seek shelter from the cold;
  • Keep pets on a leash, especially dogs, as they can become disoriented or lost when once familiar surroundings are covered in ice and snow;
  • Wipe paws clean after walking on ice and snow; and
  • Make sure pets are wearing ID tags and proper outerwear as needed.
