Today is Workaholics Day. Moxie and I work hard when I am not out with the #furryornotgang. Does your pet hang out with you if you work from home? Share a photo of your pets helping you work. We love seeing the gang!
Video description: A side shot of me and Moxie (a large brown tabby). You can see my hands on the computer keyboard and Moxie is on my lap looking at the screen purring. The text reads “Workaholics Day
Do you work from home? Does your pet supervise your HARD work? Moxie is a taskmaster.”
The dog days of Summer are here starting July 3rd to August 11th. Here’s a furry fun fact, and reminder to keep your furries sweet in the heat. 😊 #abbotsfordpetservice #abbotsfordcatsitter #missiondogwalker #furryfunfact
It’s officially summer and the hot weather can really take a toll on our pets. When it’s hot, please leave your pets at home while doing errands. It is always 10 degrees hotter in your vehicle than it is outside after just 10 minutes, and after 20 minutes can almost double. Parking in the shade and leaving the window open a crack is just not enough. Please also watch closely for signs of heat stroke.
Early signs of heatstroke in pet animals
Panting, this can progress to distressed or noisy breathing as the heatstroke worsens.
Restlessness or agitation, pacing, seeking shade or water.
Drooling.
Red gums or tongue.
Increased heart rate.
Vomiting or diarrhoea.
If you notice any of these symptoms please get your pet into a cool place and provide water. If it persists please see a veterinarian.

It’s Garden Week.🤓
For a great dog friendly plant and natural shader, consider adding sunflowers to your yard or balcony. These are a beautiful and bright addition to your garden and also produce rich bird seed for our local bird population in the autumn. 🐕 🦜
Another great plant to consider for your furry felines is cat grass. Cat grass, is packed with antioxidants, chlorophyll, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that promote cat health, plus fiber to support digestion. They will love grazing and keep themselves occupied for hours. 🐈
And for a nostalgic and cost effective pollinator you can consider wildflower mixes. Bees prefer blue, purple, and yellow flowers, and sweet fragrances. They see ultraviolet colors – found on the flowers such as buttercups and black-eyed Susans. Golden currant, serviceberry, and chokecherry flower early in May and June and attract bumble bees and mason bees. 🐝
Happy Gardening.😊

It’s important to include your pets in any emergency plans you make for your household. They are totally dependent on you for their safety and well-being. June is Pet Preparedness Month and the American Red Cross has steps you can follow to make an emergency plan for your animals.
CREATE A PET EMERGENCY PLAN
Know a safe place to take your pets. Know which hotels and motels along your evacuation route will accept pets in an emergency. Call ahead for reservations if you know you may need to evacuate. Ask if no-pet policies could be waived in an emergency.
PET EMERGENCY KIT Place the following items in a sturdy, easy-to-carry container:
Sturdy leashes, harnesses and/or carriers to transport pets safely and ensure that they can’t escape.
Food, drinking water, bowls, cat litter/pan and a manual can opener if your pet eats canned food.
Medications and copies of medical records stored in a waterproof container.
A first aid kit.
Current photos of you with your pet(s) in case they get lost. Since many pets look alike, this will help to eliminate mistaken identity and confusion.
Information on feeding schedules, medical conditions, behavior problems, and the name and number of your veterinarian in case you have to foster or board your pets.
Pet beds and toys, if easily transportable.

Just like humans, dogs experience anxiety. While unpleasant, it is a normal and also healthy emotion. Dog anxiety can affect all breeds, but may affect each individual dog differently. Although it is something that all dogs experience from time to time, if disproportionate levels of anxiety are left unchecked, a dog can develop an anxiety disorder. If left untreated, dog anxiety can lead to behavioral and other issues.
Here is a great article from the American Kennel Club with excellent tips on what causes pet anxiety, and the best ways to manage it.
