There are some definite perks to this job! I was literally surrounded by snoozing dogs - one on the floor to my left, one on the floor to my right, and one on the back of my chair. Lucky me 🐾✨💜

⚡️FRIDAY FUN FACT: Grooming is a great way to keep your cat cool in the heat! It brushes away dead hair and thereby thins out their coat a bit, allowing them to keep cool. You can also put ice cubes in their water bowl and provide a damp towel for them to lay on. 🐱☀️🐾

⚡️FRIDAY FUN FACT: Rabbit societies in the wild are strongly hierarchical. The top male controls the group and protects them from intruders. Rabbits mark their territories using scent glands under their chins and around their ge****ls. When males reach old age, they are replaced by a younger rival and cast away from the group to live alone. Source: https://www.bbcearth.com/factfiles/animals/mammals/rabbit

✨ We levelled up our safety protocols today, thanks to a great idea from the council! We've had "guest tags" printed for dogs who stay with us, whether boarding, walking, or doggy day care. When your pup arrives, we'll clip a guest tag to their collar; in the unlikely even of them running away while they're with us, anyone who finds them knows to call us rather than you, as you may be out of the country or otherwise unable to answer 🐕 Doing everything we can to keep your loved ones safe

🎂 🥳 Today we celebrated our sweet Jolene turning 3 years old! She has been with us most of that time, and BOY are we lucky to have her ❤️ We've always thought that she's just wonderful, but the last six months have reiterated just how easygoing she really is, with so many new friends coming into her home. The birthday girl celebrated her special day with two long walks, a piece of pork, presents, a sleepover with a new pal 🐾 We love you, Jolene! 🎉 🐕

⚡️FRIDAY FUN FACT: We say that a dog's sense of smell is 40 times better than humans because the area of cells in the brain that detect different smells is around 40 times larger in dogs than humans. But it's even more interesting and complex than that...see the cool graphic below, courtesy of PDSA. Source: https://www.pdsa.org.uk/what-we-do/blog/10-amazing-facts-about-dogs
