THE DREAM THAT MANY WILL NOT UNDERSTAND:
My Dogs are my personal dream.
One day when I am very old and when I can not walk anymore, it will be in my heart as a trophy of my memories.
Every time I am with my dogs, I think about how wonderful they are.
I stopped talking about it to those who do not understand, and I learned to communicate with others of the same mindset.
I have met some amazing people I now call friends from all over this big world because of my dogs.
I spent money that I did not have, giving up many things, but all these things are not worth even one special moment with my dogs.
They are not just a pet or a thing that I own, they are the lost part of my soul and my spirit.
And when someone says to me: "It's just a dog", ... I do not answer. I just swing my head and smile.
A dog..... only the person who loves them understands it.
Wishing good Karma to my friends and all their dogs...
And the adventure continues. .

Came across this old postcard while looking at vintage advertising post cards. Most of them were advertising sewing machines with women and children, this was one of the few with dogs, other than a dog or cat laying at the women's feet.

I cannot agree with this more. Sadly, the message goes unheeded in a lot of the population. Every attempt is made here at our kennel to address any issues and make sure that every stay is a good one for your dog, and that they will come back to you safe and healthy. There are no doggie parks here but lots of individual areas for exercise and stimulation, always dependent on the needs of each individual dog. And if it's a birthday party that you want (realizing that it's not your dog that wants it), it won't be here.

Hello friends!

The total solar eclipse is just around the corner, and just about everyone is ready to see the once in a lifetime event. We are seeing some mixed information about pet/wildlife safety.

Contrary to what some may read, the sun itself is not any more dangerous during the eclipse. The reason protective eye wear is recommended for humans (who wish to observe the eclipse) is because many of us will be staring directly at the sun that day, which is something we typically avoid.

For our pets, and outdoor wildlife, that day will be similar to any other day. Our pets don’t stare at the sun, so there is no need to keep them indoors on April 08 for any extended period of time. They may notice the change in temperature, but it is unlikely they will exhibit any unusual behaviour.

The eclipse can be more unsettling for birds. The dimming of the sky can mimic behaviour at dusk and during early storm formation, so some birds may demonstrate a wind-down behaviour and there may be less activity in the sky during the peak eclipse. Once the sky returns to normal, so does their behaviour.

If you are purchasing eclipse glasses, please make sure they meet these criteria. For additional information about the eclipse please see:
https://science.nasa.gov/eclipses/safety/

For a list of approved solar-viewing goggles please see:

It is not safe to watch the eclipse through the lens of your smartphone - it can damage both your phone camera and your eyes. Try this instead:

Safe watching our friends!
