Nothing kills game day vibes faster than food poisoning. 🤢
Follow these 3 tips to keep your crew safe this tailgating season:

1️⃣ Separate raw meats and ready-to-eat foods
2️⃣ Keep hot food over 140°F, & cold food under 40°F
3️⃣ Toss food that’s been sitting out for 2+ hours

📣 Share this with your tailgate squad so everyone stays safe this football season.

Not every friendly face is safe to pet.

When you see an unfamiliar dog or cat, it’s tempting to say hello. But remember, if it isn’t your pet, you don’t know its health or vaccination status. Rabies can be carried by any mammal, not just wild animals.

⚠️ If you’re bitten or scratched by any unfamiliar animal, seek medical care immediately.

📲 To make a report or learn more, contact Person County Animal Services at (336) 597-1741.

👉 Share this reminder with other animal lovers.
