No Fireworks in City Limits – Sparklers Are Okay!

Play Video

Fireworks are illegal within Waco city limits, but sparklers are ok! It’s not just about the noise. Fireworks have a bigger impact than you might think:

🐾 They scare pets, leading to an increase in lost or stray animals and more calls to our Animal Care Officers.
🚓 Waco Police respond to noise complaints and safety concerns.
🚒 Waco Fire is called out for injuries and fire risks.

This 4th of July, help us keep our community safe and stress-free for both people and pets. Let’s celebrate responsibly!

🚫 Leave the fireworks to the pros.
✅ Keep pets indoors and safe.
❤️ Be kind to your neighbors (furry ones included!).
