💔 Coping with the Death of a Dog

They don’t live forever, but they love like they will.
When they go, they leave more than silence—
a leash by the door, fur in the corner, a rhythm gone.

But in that space, they also leave gifts:
Live in the moment.
Love without ego.
Forgive quickly.
Greet the world with joy.

Grief isn’t linear. Some days you’ll laugh at old photos.
Other days, one small sound will break you.

Let it come. Feel it fully.
That pain is just love looking for a place to rest.
Healing comes not from forgetting,
but from carrying forward the ways they made you better.

Ditch the Retractable Leash
Why We Don’t Use Retractable
They seem convenient, but retractable leashes can be dangerous:

⚠️ Sudden snapbacks
⚠️ Zero control in emergencies
⚠️ Confusing for your dog

We use 4-ft fixed leashes for safe, consistent communication.

It’s a hot one out there! We’re keeping it cool with shorter walks, only shade, temp checks, and lots of water this week. Hydrated pups = happy pups! 💦🐾

Positive reinforcement in action = treats in our pouch. 🐾💛
We use rewards to build trust, boost confidence, and support focus. Always chicken and grain-free because so many pups have sensitive tummies and we walk with care.

We’re not trainers, we’re mindful walkers who know that kindness (and the right treat) goes a long way.

Should your dog sleep on your bed?
Short answer: Maybe.
Long answer: Let’s break it down. 🐾

Sleeping together can be beautiful:
🌀 Comfort
🌀 Connection
🌀 Security
Dogs are social by nature they like to be close.

But it’s not always the best idea:
🚫 Poor sleep (for you and your dog)
🚫 Resource guarding
🚫 More clinginess—not confidence

Ask yourself:
• Are we both sleeping well?
• Is my dog calm, not demanding?
• Am I choosing this or just letting it happen?

At Not The Rug, we believe in balance.
Love your dog deeply.
Lead with calm clarity.
A well-rested dog + human = the real win. 🖤

Whether it’s your bed or theirs make it intentional.
Trust, not habits.
Love, not guilt.
That’s how we do it. ❤️

Leash Tension Speaks Volumes 🦮

Happy Birthday, Kai! Ever since your parents brought you home from the rescue, it’s been an honor to be part of your journey. Watching you grow into the sweetest, most gentle boy has truly been a joy.

What does 15 years bring to a dog walking service?

Consistency. Calm under pressure. Deep intuition. And a proven track record you can trust.

At Not The Rug, we’ve walked through every kind of weather, trained up dozens of team members, supported shy pups, senior dogs, rescues, and reactive ones too.

This isn’t a side hustle it’s a calling. Because when you hand over the leash, you deserve someone who understands the weight of that trust.

15 years in Williamsburg, and we’re still walking strong. 🐾
