STL pet parents! 🐕🐈 Halloween can be a fright for our furry friends — with all the doorbells, costumes & commotion, it’s easy for pets to slip outside.

Keep them safe indoors and double-check those ID tags! 🎃💛

Hey STL! 👋 It’s spooky season, but that glowing “cauldron” on your dashboard isn’t magic—it’s your tire pressure warning light! 🛞
Cooler temps = lower pressure, so give those tires a quick check and keep your ride safe. 🚗✨
