Set your pups up to have a Fear Free Fourth! 🇺🇸🎆

Talk to your veterinarian if your dog is scared and anxious with loud noises and the upcoming 4th of July fireworks. Most all dogs are, so please leave them safely at home and don’t bring them with you if you’re going out to see the fireworks.

Happy Wednesday! 😊🦮

Did you know? Yawning is contagious - even for dogs. Research shows that the sound of a human yawn can trigger one from your dog. And it’s four times as likely to happen when it’s the yawn of a person he knows.

Are you and your pup in sync with your morning yawns?

Make it a great day! ☀️

Does your dog know the basic obedience commands?

The sit, down, come, and stay behaviors are the groundwork commands.

Time spent teaching them now will reduce problems down the road. Create a deeper bond with your pup and start today!

There’s only 10 days left til Christmas! We can’t believe it. Can you? Did you shop for your favorite fur baby already?

Please stay away from this type of rawhide when finding a gift for your pup. These are not good for your dogs and can cause obstructions if consumed. That surgery is scary and costly. Stick to more easily digestible, small sized snacks.

Alternatives we recommend are carrots, bully sticks, deer or elk antlers, and Himalayan Yak chews.

What other rawhide alternatives do you like giving your pup?

As with anything your pup is chewing, supervision is necessary.

Make it a great Wednesday! 🌲🐶

Happy Tuesday! Let’s talk about who is controlling who on your walks.

Are you familiar with, or already using a Front-clip harness?

This is a great option for dogs who like to pull. The leash clips to the front of the harness, helping to stop a dog’s forward movement.

Be sure to check with your vet or trainer about proper fit.

November is National Adopt a Senior Pet Month!

There are many senior dogs and cats in shelters and with rescue groups that are waiting for a good home. If you are thinking about getting a pet, please consider opening your heart to a senior dog or cat. 💕🐶

There are plenty of benefits. They are usually already pros at basic commands, low key, less energetic, house trained, and have so much love to give and companionship.

Senior pets often make the most grateful adoptees.
