Neither house sitters nor jetting off for the weekend are possibilities for most dog owners who want to travel right now. So these furry friends are increasingly curled up in the back (or front) seat, enjoying the ride.

Animal Haven was always rescuing animals. Now the shelter is doing it on the front lines.

"At least twice a day for an hour, put her in a room (or a crate in a room) and close the door. 'They’ll protest, they’ll scream, and you just have to let them cry it out,' says Berloni, who’s also director of animal training and behavior for the Humane Society of New York. When you come back, act like you’re having a normal, boring interaction."

As hard as it might be, now’s when you have to enforce some separation, experts say.

How to Assist a Blind Person with a Guide Dog.

1. Guide dogs don’t understand social distancing. Please help keep a safe distance by staying 6 feet away.

2. Please don’t let your pet near a guide dog, even if your pet is leashed. Even allowing your pet to visit or “say hi”, for just a moment can cause the guide dog to lose focus on the important job he has to do.

3. It’s helpful to let a person who is blind know that you are nearby and tell them if you have a dog with you.

4. Do not pet the guide dog, call the dog’s name, make eye contact, feed or talk to the dog. It’s always best to treat the dog as if he is not there.

5. Do not shout directions, take the person by the arm or interrupt them, especially when they are crossing the street. Always ask the person if they need help first.

Yesterday, George Floyd was put to rest. But, I will not rest until I do more work, as a white Jewish woman, to listen. I want to hear from my Black clients and friends about how I can do better. Please reach out to me and let me know.

We are dealing with a country built on racist soil. As white people, we must unlearn not only what our teachers taught us, but what their teachers taught them, and so on.

As the late Maurice Berger once said, "Be prepared to admit that you don't know enough, don't understand, don't feel it. Be prepared not to say anything, to silence your voice, to let others speak, and to LISTEN. Never stop listening."
