Did you know that a litter of puppies can have different fathers?? These two siblings came from the same litter but obviously have different sires (dads!). Can you pick their breeds??

Period.

When you own a dog, regardless of size, breed or temperament, it’s your responsibility to keep everyone around you safe.

This includes your vet.

This is my dog Roy. He is my absolute world and I love him and would do anything for him. He’s an incredible pet to our family and a small circle of people that he’s chosen.

He’s also a prick to people he has no relationships with. Before me he had a bite hitory and he is absolutely capable of still doing it at 11.5 years of age. He’s got terrible genetics and very thin nerves.

Yesterday he needed vet care.

You know what I did?

✅ I checked reception before I walked in to ensure nobody was in our path.

✅ I had him on a short lead under physical and verbal control.

✅ I kept both of us away from the doorway until we were called in, while keeping an eye out for unexpected people ready to move if needed.

✅ I restrained him appropriately while the vets and nurses did their thing and reassured them that they would be safe not only with my words but with my actions.

✅ I didn’t get offended at their requests around safety or his cage label.

In short, I did everything in my power to help the vets and nurses do what they needed to do safely and go home in one piece.

It bugs me intensely when I see people endangering professionals who are there to help them. Your vet clinic shouldnt end up with staff at the ED because you dont believe in muzzles, restraint or responsible dog handling.

When you own a dog, you have a duty of care to ensure they do not cause damage to other people in EVERY environment and situation. You dont get to pass off responsibility.

If you have a dog who has social issues, thats ok.
Just make sure you keep your community safe 🫶

One of our nurses has been lacing up for Red, Set, Go this August in support of Red Nose Australia — a cause deeply close to her heart, as she and her Red, Set, Go team support one of their own through the immeasurable grief of child loss.

With only two days left of the fundraiser, every donation makes a difference and helps provide vital research, education and support to grieving families who need it most.

💛 Donations can be made here: https://www.rednoseday.org.au/fundraisers/HotMumsForSunny

Hot Mums for Sunny is dedicated to raising funds that will support grieving families and help save little lives in the name of our beloved Sunny.

We see lots of ‘Covid puppies’ 🐶 that missed out on training and socialisation when they were young & now they are very anxious and needy. Medicating them can sometimes help but puppy school and on going training with qualified trainers such as Animal dog trainers is crucial!

Dogs are increasingly being prescribed medications to treat "problem behaviours", but experts suggest non-drug solutions could be better.

If you know, you know! Growing up with pets prevents allergies 🤧! Another great reason to embrace your pet!!

Living with animals is thought to have profound effects on our immunity – potentially reducing the risk of allergies, eczema and even autoimmune conditions.
