Sneaky hot temps tomorrow and Friday.
We’re not the only ones in need of a little refreshment – our four-legged friends could do with some relief from the heat too!
Tips for cats 🐱
Groom: Regular grooming removes excess or dead hair, which traps heat.
Provide water: Cats need plenty of water to stay hydrated. You can add ice cubes to their water bowl or make ice cube treats. You can also add a little water to their food.
Tips for dogs 🐶
Easy iceblock ideas!!!
Simply add a tablespoon of pure peanut butter and one peeled banana to a container and fill the rest with water before freezing. (Just make sure you choose a peanut butter brand that doesn’t include xytlitol, as this can be dangerous for dogs.)
Blueberries are also a great substitute for banana if you want to switch things up!
Swimming/ waddling pool for dogs.
As dogs release heat through their paws, it's an effective way of cooling them down quickly. Fill the pool halfway with cold water. 💦 💦💦

It’s not at all always serious commands at puppy school we do learn special tricks too! ✅✅
‘SHAKE’ and ‘TOUCH’ are our favs and can be such a great starting foundation for many other tricks!
This class absolutely excelled in tonight’s tricks !
By training your dog to shake or touch (as well all the other foundational behaviors like sitting and staying), you've helped keep them safe, improved their confidence also redirect their focus to you, and given yourself something to show off!

Week 2 tonight for our new puppies in our puppy preschool.
All finding their groove this week!
Very proud of this group displaying their mat training throughout tonight’s class.
Having a dog that can settle quietly on a mat is probably one of the most useful things an owner can have. Going to the mat becomes a cue to settle and be calm.
A beautiful relaxing puppy massage was also demonstrated to treat our pups at the end of the class. Needless to say some of these pups were completely content, calm and peaceful 💤🙏

Spring has sprung 🐝🐍⚘️🌻🌻

Snakes and ticks are out and about.
To protect your pet from tick paralysis ensure your flea and tick treatment is up to date.

🐾When walking your pooch stay away from overgrown grass and bushes.
🐾Keep your pet on leash so you can ensure they aren't bitten by a snake without your knowledge.
🐾Tick search your pet daily.
🐾 If your pet is affected by a tick or snake, take them to a vet asap.

Treatment can be expensive so being safe and prevention is key!
