Today is Remember Your Dog Day, a time to pause and honor the loyal hearts who filled our lives with unconditional love. As this candle glows bright, it carries memories of wagging tails, gentle eyes, and the quiet companionship that made ordinary days feel extraordinary. Our dogs were never just pets — they were family, comfort, and a constant presence that loved us without asking for anything in return.

Let this candle shine for all the dogs we lost but will never forget. Though they no longer walk beside us, their love still lives on in our hearts, our homes, and the routines we remember. Today, we honor them with gratitude, with tears, and with a love that time can never erase.

Please share pictures and memories of your furry loved ones on the other side.

PET OWNERS… We have appointments available today at Compassion 4 Paws Veterinary Healing Center and Urgent Care in Grand Ledge. So, if your pet needs to be seen, please feel free to give us a call!

I was finally able to successfully trap this sweet little dog on Eaton Highway in Grand Ledge today after being on the run for over a week in this terrible frigid weather! Many thanks to all the people in the area that reported sightings without chasing, and allowed me to set up my traps and cameras in their yards. It takes cooperation and help from the community to have these successes, and this was a perfect ending. I was praying extra hard today.

There is no microchip and no collar. I will be contacting all the animal controls as well as CAHS, just in case anyone has called looking. I am also posting on several pages and checking to see if anyone is looking for this little one.

Once the legal stay hold is up, if the owner isn’t found, she can be rehomed. In the meantime, one of my staff members at Nana-n-Paws is able to care for her. Please message me if you know who the owner might be. Proof of ownership will be required.

“Peek-a-boo! 👀💙 Theodore stopped by the clinic today and completely stole our hearts. Those big golden eyes say ‘I was very brave… and I deserve extra treats.’ 🐈✨”. He is CLEARLY very loved! ❤️🐾

PLEASE take a few minutes to watch this excellent video on bloat in dogs. Bloat can cause their stomach to flip, and that is fatal. You have a very small window of time to catch it and get them to a vet. It happens fast, so you need to know the symptoms and how to try and prevent it. This is something that all of our staff at Nana-n-Paws is trained on and it is why we feed breakfast at 6am and don’t start play groups until 9am. Then dinner at 6pm and no more play afterwards. Please watch and share.

📢 Compassion 4 Paws Policy Reminder: Euthanasia Services

At Compassion 4 Paws, our mission is to provide love, dignity, and comfort for pets who are truly at the end of their journey—not to offer convenience-based solutions. ❤️🐾

🔹 We do NOT perform convenience euthanasia.
This means we will only provide euthanasia services for pets who:
• Have a terminal medical condition confirmed by a veterinarian, with no reasonable treatment options available to restore comfort or quality of life.

🔹 We do NOT perform behavioral euthanasia without a formal behavioral assessment by our General Manager at Nana-n-Paws.

Unfortunately, we receive too many requests from families who are:
• Tired of caring for senior pets
• Unwilling to pursue reasonable treatment options
• Experiencing lifestyle or household changes that make pet ownership inconvenient

We believe every pet deserves a fair chance at life and healing when treatment is possible. If it is medically determined that euthanasia is the best option for your pet, we will absolutely help them cross over peacefully. 🐶🐱

Stop in and welcome our newest staff member, Toruk. He is ready to get you all scheduled and taken care of. He doesn’t have the best phone etiquette, but we’re working on it. Lol

There is a false Facebook post circulating that states that you can call 313-922-3647 to report animals left out in the cold statewide 24/7. This is incorrect. That is the number for Detroit Animal Control. They ONLY serve Detroit and they are open 7am-7pm seven days a week. I suspected that was false information, so I called and talked with them myself. You need to call your local animal control.
