Millie is always getting someone to play with her 😅

Yesterday’s crew had an absolute blast! 😂❤️ If they weren’t busy playing with each other, they were off entertaining themselves or keeping an eye on the farm animals. There was always something going on and never a dull moment! 🐾🤣

Safe to say there were some tired pups heading home at the end of the day! 😂❤️

Shiloh has been gaining more confidence every time she visits, and today she really came out of her shell! 🥰 So nice to see her playing so well all day! ❤️🐾

A little photo dump from Tuesday and yesterday! 🐾❤️
Tuesday’s crew was a little chaotic (the neighbours were probably wondering what all the barking was about...Luna & Blue 😂👀), but they seemed to have calmed down a bit yesterday! 😅
Everyone had a great time despite the chaos! We love seeing all the different personalities come out throughout the day, whether they're busy playing, running around or just doing their own thing. Never a dull moment! 🥰🐶

Halloween is full of treats, costumes, and spooky fun, but it can also bring unexpected dangers for our pets. 🎃🐾
Chocolate, xylitol, raisins, candy wrappers, button batteries, and fake spiderwebs can all turn fun into an emergency. With the front door open all evening, or lots of new faces walking through the neighborhood, even a normally calm pet can get frightened or escape outside.
I want every pet parent to take a few minutes before the trick-or-treaters arrive to make sure their four-legged family members are safe. Keep candy out of reach, pet-proof your decorations, check ID tags, and create a quiet retreat for pets who need a break from the commotion.
And don’t forget to include your pet in the fun! A little pure pumpkin or a homemade, pet-friendly treat can make Halloween special without risking their health. 🎃
I’ve shared 7 Halloween safety tips every pet parent should know to help keep your dog or cat safe, comfortable, and out of the emergency room.
Read the full article before the Halloween festivities begin, and please share it with someone who loves their pets as much as you do!
Wishing you and your furry family a happy, healthy, and safe Halloween! 🧡

🚨🐶🐱 EUROPE BANNED TITANIUM DIOXIDE FROM ANIMAL FEED! YET BRANDS LIKE HILL’S, MILK-BONE & TEMPTATIONS STILL LIST IT IN SOME OF THEIR PET FOODS!

Why is this concerning?

🔬 Studies raise questions about DNA DAMAGE, PRECANCEROUS INTESTINAL CHANGES & DISRUPTED GUT BACTERIA!

And here’s the surprising part: Titanium dioxide provides ZERO nutritional benefits to your dog or cat. It’s a coloring agent used to make food look more appealing!

WHAT DOES THE RESEARCH SHOW?

🧬 DNA DAMAGE CONCERNS: In 2021, the European Food Safety Authority concluded that titanium dioxide could no longer be considered safe as a food additive because potential damage to genetic material couldn’t be ruled out. The EU subsequently prohibited its use in animal feed.

🚨 PRECANCEROUS CHANGES: A peer-reviewed study published in Scientific Reports found that food-grade titanium dioxide was associated with early precancerous changes and intestinal inflammation in rats.

🦠 DISRUPTED GUT BACTERIA: Research published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry found that titanium dioxide nanoparticles reduced beneficial gut bacteria, including Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, and increased intestinal inflammation in mice.

🩸 BLOOD SUGAR DISRUPTION: A 2025 study published in Food and Chemical Toxicology found that titanium dioxide nanoparticles disrupted blood sugar regulation and reduced important gut hormones involved in appetite and digestion.

🐾 SO WHY IS IT STILL IN PET FOOD?

Titanium dioxide is still permitted as a coloring additive in North America, and some products from Hill’s, Milk-Bone and Temptations have listed it among their ingredients.

THIS ISN’T ABOUT FEAR-MONGERING. IT’S ABOUT EDUCATION AND ASKING PET FOOD MANUFACTURERS TO DO BETTER!

Pet parents deserve transparency about what’s going into their animals’ food.

When an ingredient provides no nutritional benefit and raises legitimate scientific safety concerns, it’s reasonable to ask:

WHY IS IT NECESSARY IN THE FIRST PLACE?

Our dogs and cats deserve better. 🐾❤️

CHECK YOUR PET’S INGREDIENT LABELS AND SHARE THIS TO HELP EDUCATE OTHER PET PARENTS!

There was something so beautiful about stepping outside this morning and seeing the full moon still shining bright in the sky! 😍🌕 For a moment, it almost looked like a light was on outside. Nature sure has a way of giving us these little moments to stop and appreciate the beauty around us. ❤️
