Summer walks need a little more planning. Before you head out, think about:

Shade -->Where can your dog cool off along the way?

Grass --> Can you avoid long stretches of hot pavement?

Water --> Is there a place to pause, drink, or refill?

Rest Stops --> Are there quiet spots where your dog can sniff, watch, or reset?

Weather --> When will it be coolest & hottest outside today?

Bottom line --> In summer, a good walk is one that helps your dog stay safe, cool, and comfortable.

Enjoy the season with your best pup 🐾☀️!

We ❤ summer, and summer weather is here! The sun, heat, & lots of events can interrupt our regular walk schedule and times. Our pups still need their physical and mental exercise. If the heat or your schedule prevents a long walk or hike, try a shorter activity like:

>> A shady neighborhood loop
A familiar route still gives your dog movement, smells, and routine.

>> A slow sniffy walk
Letting them stop and investigate can be just as valuable as covering distance.

>>A short park lap
Grass, shade, and a calmer pace can make a big difference.

>>An evening stroll
Cooler temps + fewer distractions can help some dogs enjoy the walk more.

>>A “just enough” walk
10–15 good minutes is better than skipping the walk entirely.

When you're out and about, watch for:
heavy panting • lagging behind • hot pavement • shade-seeking • getting overstimulated

And yes, sometimes the best summer walk is the one where your dog spends 12 minutes sniffing the same patch of grass like it contains state secrets 😆!

Today we remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives for our freedom.

Memorial Day feels especially meaningful for us as we have family members who have served and continue to serve in both retired and active military roles. ❤️ We're incredibly grateful for their sacrifices and for all those who have protected our country.

Wishing everyone a safe Memorial Day filled with family, fresh air, and a little adventure with your pups.

We’re closed for the day today but we’ll see you tomorrow for our regular hours!🐾
