With every dog we meet, one of our goals is to equip them with a martingale collar, a much safer alternative to prong collars or choke chains. We always take time to educate families on how martingale collars work and why they offer better control without compromising the dog’s comfort or safety.

That said, we don’t judge. If a family is using another type of collar properly and it’s the only effective way they can safely walk and manage their strong dog, we understand. It’s about safety, support, and meeting people where they are, not shame. We also will provide training assistance/options if families are looking for better understanding, control, and a stronger relationship with their dog.

If you’re a pet family in Gary in need please reach out. If you’d like to support this effort, we’re always in need of martingale collars, particularly in medium and large sizes. Please reach out if you’re interested in donating.

It’s time to modernize how we sterilize dogs.

Newer, simpler surgical techniques like vasectomy and ovary-sparing spay (hysterectomy) prevent unwanted litters and deadly infections like pyometra—without removing the hormones pets need for healthy physical, metabolic, immunologic and behavioral development.

The problem? Most veterinarians were never taught how to perform these easier procedures. That makes them “specialty surgeries,” which drives up the cost—and keeps them out of shelters and everyday practices where they’re most needed.

Let’s fix this! 🙌🏼 2.0 pet parents want to support shelters, but don’t want to adopt the long-term health consequences personal experience and research demonstrates (thank goodness cats have an entirely different reproductive system and are off the hook).

Please sign my petition, below, to teach hormone-sparing sterilization techniques in veterinary schools worldwide. The next generation of veterinarians—and the animals they serve—deserve better. Petition link in comments ⬇️.

Dog walker\sitter for your FUR BABY

Hello, my name is Tammie, I would like to say thanks for reading my story. I have loved animals ever since I was a child. My work life was hard to provide them enrichment of walks, potty breaks from long shifts, or crated in a crate over 6 hours. My mind was always worrying.

I learned more about dogs 6 years ago after adopting a dog from a rescue Guardians of the Green Mile (GOTGM). I wanted to do things right with my new Puppy. Then we became foster parents for dogs that needed homes. When I became a foster my 1st dog was a mamma dog that lost her puppies and had a hard life and previously returned from her new adopted family. She is from Chicago Animal Control Center (CACC) and they offered free training with her adoption. Well as her foster mom we also qualified for free training. Ever since then my inspiration was in full bloom of wanting to help other dogs or animals that were being miss treated or just at home alone. That’s when I started to get involved with a positive dog trainer at Patient Paws Positive Dog Training. Since then I have enrolled and currently studying with Karen Pryor Academy to earn my Certification in Positive Dog Training.

I want to offer the same to others. My inspiration to start my own business helping others came from me having an unease mind while at work. Wondering what was my fur babies doing at home while I was at work 7 hours a day, and my spouse gone 12 hours a day. So I quit my part-time job and now started a new journey.

I want to build a great clientele and provide them with a service that eases their mind of someone coming into your home and walking your dog safely in public, in his/her neighborhood. If you dog just needs a potty break because its owner is at work for a long day. If the dog owner wants to have a weekend get away, instead of boarding, leave your fur loved one at home and hire a dog sitter to provide you with full service to your animal with love and care safely.
