Having random people show up at your home or not showing up at all, is not a great concept for your pet or a great business ethics on WAG!’s part.
Putting a Band-Aid by filing for chapter 11 is only going to temporarily help WAG! from their current situation.
Always make sure you set up a Meet and Greet prior to leaving your extended family member for holidays / vacations.

SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — Wag!, the app-based pet care company that was once reportedly valued at $650 million, has filed for bankruptcy. The company, which was founded in Los Angeles but maintains its headquarters in San Francisco, filed for Chapter 11 in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District o...

If the floor feels hot for your feet 🦶, then it’s too hot for theirs. Use your hand and touch the pavement! 🥵 🐾 🔥

Pavement may look harmless to you in your comfy shoes, but for your dog’s paws, it can be a hidden hazard—especially on warm days. Pet parents are often surprised to learn just how quickly surfaces like asphalt, concrete, metal, sand, artificial turf, and even dry grass or wood can become dangerously hot for dogs.

Unlike us, our pups walk “barefoot,” making them highly vulnerable to burns and injuries from heated surfaces. Even when the air feels comfortable, sidewalk and road temperatures can soar:
- At just 77°F (25°C) outside, asphalt can reach 125°F (51°C)
-At 86°F (30°C), it can hit an astonishing 135°F (57°C)—hot enough to burn skin in under ONE minute!
-Burns can occur at pavement temperatures as low as 120°F (49°C)—and some surfaces, like metal or artificial grass, can get even hotter!

Prolonged exposure may leave your dog temporarily unable to walk, causing pain, frustration, and a lengthy healing process.

Dog paw pads may look tough but are just as sensitive as your own skin. Signs of paw pad burns include limping, refusing to walk, excessive licking, blisters, discoloration, or even missing skin. Protecting those precious paws is essential to their safety and happiness.

SAFETY TIPS!
Always test the walking surface: Place the back of your hand on the ground for 5–10 seconds. If it’s too hot for your skin, it’s too hot for your dog. When in doubt, opt for early morning or late evening walks, stick to shaded or grassy areas, and apply paw wax like Musher's for extra protection.

Your dog depends on you to protect them—let’s keep those tails wagging and paws happy! xoAmy

🥺

Fireworks and festivities are fun for us but frightening for pets.

As you celebrate this 4th of July, don’t forget about your four-legged family members:
🏡 Keep them indoors and away from loud noises
🔊 Use calming background noise like music or TV
🆔 Make sure they’re microchipped and wearing ID tags

Every year, shelters fill up with pets who panic and run. Let’s work together to keep them safe at home.

Cindy here,’so I pull up to make a delivery, and one dog trots over like he’s got a reservation under “Good Boy.” I go to grab a treat from the back, come back to the front… and bam, now I’ve got a full-blown welcoming committee of three dogs staring at me like I’m the snack fairy.

No barking, no drama, just big eyes, wagging tails, and silent judgment if I took too long. All sweet babies, all clearly trained in treat ambush tactics.

Honestly, it was the hardest delivery of the day… because I hated leaving.
Might go back tomorrow just to “check on the package status.” 😌

Too often I’ve been hearing people saying that their cats or dogs have died from kidney failure. Distilled water is one of the best waters to give your pets to prevent deadly kidney failure with a good multivitamin.

Is distilled water safe to drink? My answer- definitely Yes to distilled water as the best choice for pets.

Got a dog 🐕 with suspicious symptoms like fatigue 🫩, skin and coat issues, loss of appetite, and increased thirst?

These symptoms might not just be “aging” or “allergies.” They could be signs your dog’s immune system is attacking its own body.

Autoimmune conditions are often silent, slow-moving, and misdiagnosed. And for many dogs, the first thing prescribed is high doses of steroids. While this approach can reduce inflammation fast, it also carries risks like liver stress, muscle wasting, and immune suppression that isn’t always effective, or can create complications down the road.

This Sunday on the Inside Scoop, join us as we explain and discuss:

🔎 How to recognize early signs of thyroid and autoimmune issues.

💊 When steroids help—and when they may be making things worse.

🦠 Alternatives to reduce inflammation, support immune balance, and address the root cause.

💉 What to know about vaccinating dogs with autoimmune conditions.

🧪 What tests can uncover what’s really going on?

We'll also share tips and protocols that support the thyroid, and nourish the gut and nervous system.

Join us Sunday at 12pm EST! If your pet’s symptoms feel “off” but no one has clear answers, you won’t want to miss this episode.

👉🏼Comment SCOOPERS and we'll message you the link to join Inside Scoop, a Planet Paws monthly subscription group, where all live podcasts are available to watch at any time. Plus, over 5 years of content including: past live podcasts, interviews, ebook downloads, and more!
