This time of year makes me think of the many pets who live outdoors or are indoor/outdoor pets, and may face some cold, if not frigid weather. Some freeze to death. It’s hard to fathom, but it’s true. Pets need shelter. I ran across this photo on Facebook. It may seem like a small contribution, but to a small animal out in the cold, this shelter can make a difference between surviving or not. Three containers are nestled inside each other, {Read More}
Dog Pee On The Christmas Tree
December 5, 2013 by
We give our dogs enough water, so let’s make sure that they have ample opportunity to release their valves when they need to and urinate.

Thanksgiving for Dogs
November 26, 2013 by
If your dogs are going to join you in the Thanksgiving feasting on Thursday, remember to be careful about a few foods. Raisins and grapes, as well as onions and garlic can be toxic to dogs. So can an unattended turkey carcass if a dog eats all those cooked bones. Danger! And let’s not forget chocolate. The darker, the more toxic to dogs. Baker’s chocolate is the worst! It’s extremely toxic to our beloved dogs, and unfortunately, most dogs are {Read More}
