Easy homemade dog cookies!
Want to make your dogs a sweet treat for Thanksgiving? Here's a recipe for my Harvest Hound Cookies - doggie approved, even if they have sensitive stomachs!

What you'll need:
3 Cups of old-fashioned rolled oats
2 Large Eggs
1 Cup pumpkin puree/100% Pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie filling)

Directions:
- Combine the egg and pumpkin in a bowl and whisk together until smooth.
- Add the oats and mix until dough is formed
- I use a tablespoon measuring spoon to get the round shape for each cookie (this recipe makes about 3 dozen).
- Spread the cookies out on a baking mat or greased baking sheet (I use organic unrefined coconut oil)
- Bake on 325 until cookies are golden brown, about 20 mins
- Let cookies cool completely, transfer to an airtight container, and place in refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze them for about 3 months.

🎆 Fireworks are fun for us, but terrifying for dogs!
The loud and unpredictable noises can cause panic, so even calm pups may bolt out of fear.

➡️ More dogs go missing on July 4th than any other day of the year. Let's help prevent that:

✅ Walk dogs early: well before dark, before fireworks begin
✅ Keep pets indoors if possible. When they have to go out, go with them for comfort and supervision.
✅ For outdoor dogs: secure gates, stay nearby, and use calming noise. If you can make room in your house for just one night please do it - secure them in a laundry room or enclosed space
✅ Check ID tags & microchip info, keep their collars on
✅ Play white noise, TV, or music to help mask the noise

Let’s keep them safe, calm, and close this 4th of July. 🐾❤️

I had the pleasure of caring for these three amazing pups earlier this week while their family was away on a day trip. We had so much fun together - playtime, snuggles, and lots of happy zoomies! They were total sweethearts and very well-behaved.

If you ever need help keeping your dog’s routine on track while you’re away, I’d be happy to help - whether it’s playtime, potty breaks, meals, or meds. Your pup will be in safe, caring hands!

🔥☀️ It’s dangerously hot out there - especially for dogs!
Here are some tips to keep your dog safe during this heat wave:

🐾 Test touch the pavement: if it's too hot for the back of your hand, it's certainly too hot for paws

⌚️ Walk early and late: stick to early morning or late evening to avoid peak temps

💧 Bring water: a portable bowl can be a lifesaver

🌳 Find shade and grass: cooler surfaces will protect their pads

🚫 Watch for warning signs: Excessive panting, drooling, or lagging means its time to stop immediately

Your dog’s safety always comes first. If you’re away or need help keeping them cool, I’m here for walks that are smart, safe, and tailored to this heat.

Happy National Rescue Dog Day! 🐶 🐶

Adopting our dogs didn't just change their lives, but it filled our home with endless love, laughter, and tail wags. Rescue dogs may come from tough beginnings, but they bring nothing but joy, loyalty, and love into our lives. ❤️

I'm so grateful for these two every single day! And yes, I may be holding some chicken treats to get them to look at the camera 😆

In May 2025, I decided to turn my love of caring for dogs into a local business. I've been taking care of friends and family's dogs for over 20 years and have yet to meet a pup I didn't like! Currently I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, or staying with your dog while you are away. My top priority is to always keep your dogs safe, happy and healthy while maintaining their everyday routine.
