🐾 Boarding your fur-baby soon? We've got you covered with 5 Essential Tips for Pet Boarding! 🐶✨

1️⃣ Tour the digs first: Make sure the place is fit for your pet's royal paws before you book.
2️⃣ Info overload? Nope!: The more you share, the better—trust us, there's no such thing as TMI when it comes to your pet's quirks.
3️⃣ Home away from home: Bring a piece of you along—whether it's a favorite toy, blanket, or even that old T-shirt they've claimed as theirs.
4️⃣ Vax check: Don't skip the shots! Double-check what vaccinations are needed before you book.
5️⃣ Keep calm and drop off: Act cool during drop-off (we know it's hard!). You can save the ugly cry for when you’re back in the car.

Bonus Tip: Sneak in a quick sniff test of your pet's favorite blanket before leaving—your nose will thank you later! 😜

🧶 Hairballs: Normal or Not? 🧶

Think hairballs are just a part of life with cats? Think again! 🤔 No amount of vomiting or hairballs is considered normal for our feline friends. While occasional hairballs can happen, frequent or excessive vomiting might indicate a grooming issue, dietary problem, or underlying health concern. It's important to monitor your kitty's habits and consult your vet if hairballs become a common occurrence.

Remember, a healthy cat is a happy cat! Let's keep those fur babies feeling their best. 🐾💖

Hey Pet Parents! 🐶🐱

With the summer heat upon us, it's crucial to remember how dangerous it can be to leave pets in a parked car. Our latest infographic shows just how quickly outside temperatures can rise to life-threatening levels for our furry friends.

🌡 Did You Know?
🐾Even on a mild day, temperatures inside a car can skyrocket in minutes.
🐾Cracking a window isn't enough to keep the car cool.

🛡 Better Options:
🐾Leave Pets at Home: If you can't bring them inside with you, it's safer to leave them at home.
🐾Run Errands Separately: Plan your errands so your pet isn't left in the car.
🐾Use Pet-Friendly Stores: Many stores now allow pets inside – check if your destination is pet-friendly.

Let's keep our pets safe and cool this summer! Check out our infographic for more details and share to spread the word. 🐾❤️

My daughter and I did painting with the dogs the other day. We chose three colours for each dog that reminded us of them. She put stickers down for their names. We put a bunch of random dots of paint all over the canvas then we coated the outside of a large ziplock bag in a thin layer of peanut butter and carefully slid the canvasses in.
While the dogs licked off the peanut butter, they left this masterpiece behind!! She removed the sticker letters to expose their names once it was dried.
We had such a blast!! I highly recommend it. 🐶🎨

🐾 Where Do Ticks Come From & How to Protect Your Furry Friend! 🐶

Hey fellow pet lovers! 🌟

Summer is here, and while we all love the great outdoors, it's important to be aware of those pesky ticks that can pose a threat to our beloved dogs. 🐕 Here’s a quick guide on where ticks come from and how to keep your pup safe!

🌿 Where Do Ticks Come From?
Ticks thrive in warm, humid environments, especially in areas with tall grass, bushes, and wooded regions. They love to hang out in:

Forested areas 🌲
Tall grasses and weeds 🌾
Leaf piles 🍂
Gardens and parks 🌸
Ticks wait on the tips of grasses and shrubs, ready to latch onto your pet as they pass by. Yikes! 😱

🛡 How to Protect Your Dog:
Regular Tick Checks: After outdoor adventures, thoroughly check your dog for ticks, paying close attention to ears, neck, underbelly, and between toes.

Tick Preventatives: Use vet-recommended tick preventatives, such as spot-on treatments, tick collars, or oral medications.

Keep Your Yard Tidy: Mow your lawn regularly, remove leaf litter, and keep shrubs trimmed to reduce tick habitats.

Avoid High-Risk Areas: Try to avoid letting your dog wander in tall grass or heavily wooded areas, especially during peak tick seasons.

Tick Removal: If you find a tick, remove it promptly with tweezers. Grasp it close to your dog’s skin and pull it out steadily (you can always call us for help!)

Regular Vet Visits: Keep up with regular vet check-ups and discuss the best tick prevention plan for your dog.

🚫 Why It's Important:
Ticks can transmit serious diseases to both pets and humans, including Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and Ehrlichiosis. Keeping your dog tick-free is crucial for their health and happiness! 🏥❤️

Let’s keep our furry friends safe and enjoy a tick-free summer! 🐾✨
