Danger in Rope Toys

Be very careful of the toys that you give your puppy or dog to play with. Bernese Angel (AKA Daisy), was just six-months old and tragically died earlier this month after ingesting rope, part of a dog toy. Vets operated on her to remove the rope from multiple organs but sadly, she passed away, devastating her family.

Dogs naturally chew and no toy is indestructible. It’s a good idea to supervise your pet’s play time with their toys – whether the toys are size-appropriate for the pet and their type of play, or labeled as “indestructible” – even a seemingly harmless one can be hazardous.

Summer Safety for Your Dog

Outdoor surfaces will heat up during the upcoming summer months and can get too hot for your dog to walk on. But it is not only the dark asphalt on streets that get hot; concrete, rock and sand can be blistering hot as well. Be mindful of your dog’s safety and comfort – use the 5 Second Rule:

Before walking your dog, place the back of your hand on the asphalt. If you can’t hold it there for 5 seconds, it’s too hot for your dog to go on a walk.

Help Save Our Pets In a Fire!

During fires, many pets can become victims of smoke or gas inhalation and will require oxygen. However, emergency response vehicles do not have oxygen kits that will fit them.

Our local fire departments will be able to save more of our four-legged loved ones if they have pet oxygen masks kits on board. The kits come with different sized masks to fit small, medium and large animals.

Please help us fund these needed kits and save beloved pets lives by making a donation HERE.

Papa Recovering After Surgery

Thank You Clint Patterson and Pedro Pet Pals!

Papa’s neuter surgery was about a month ago. He took a bit longer to recover, but has since recovered & is back to being his playful self. The surgery would not have been possible without your assistance, and we are forever grateful. I promise to pay it forward whenever opportunities within my means or abilities present themselves to do so.
