Yelp! Current situation:
Our dedicated vet is currently attending to an emergency case of a mama in dire condition. She recently gave birth to 8 pups and IV drips are vital to aid her recovery. We’ve resorted to using a basin of hot water to warm up the IV so poor mama doesn’t have cold water running through her veins. We're in search of a microwave to help warm the drip. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, just a functional microwave that can help ensure her comfort and well-being. Your kindness will make an immediate impact. Please reach out to us if you have a microwave to spare or if you can help in any way: [email protected] - 0743618892. Asante sana!

Our friends are seeking a new family for their 7-year-old female Cane Corso named Archie.

Dogs are some of the most loyal and loving creatures on the planet, and yet so many are abandoned and abused every day. This is a dire situation that demands our immediate attention and action.

Abandoned and abused dogs are often left to fend for themselves on the streets, with no food, shelter, or medical care. They are forced to scavenge for scraps and fend off other animals, all while suffering from untreated injuries and illnesses.

But it's not just physical suffering that these dogs endure. They also suffer from emotional trauma and are often fearful, anxious, and mistrustful of humans. Many of them have been mistreated and neglected for so long that they have lost all hope.

As a society, we cannot turn a blind eye to this suffering. We must step up and take action to rescue these dogs, provide them with the care they need, and give them a second chance at a happy life.

There are many ways you can help. You can volunteer at a local animal shelter or rescue organization, donate money or supplies, or even foster or adopt a rescued dog yourself. Every little bit helps, and together, we can make a difference.

Remember, dogs are not disposable objects that can be discarded when they become inconvenient. They are living, breathing beings that deserve love, care, and respect. Let's work together to give them the lives they deserve.

EXPLORING THE BENEFITS OF ORGANIC APPLE CIDER VINEGAR FOR DOGS: A REVIEW OF CURRENT RESEARCH

Organic apple cider vinegar (ACV) has been used for many years as a natural remedy for various health conditions in dogs. Some of the benefits of organic ACV for dogs include improving digestion, regulating blood sugar levels, promoting a healthy coat and skin, and helping to prevent infections.

One study conducted in 2016 found that the addition of apple cider vinegar to dogs' drinking water resulted in a significant reduction in the number of fleas and ticks on the dogs (Hance, 2016). Another study published in 2017 reported that apple cider vinegar can help to reduce inflammation in dogs with osteoarthritis, potentially improving their quality of life (Kim et al., 2017).

Organic ACV can also be used topically on dogs to help with skin conditions such as hot spots, itching, and dermatitis. It is important to note that organic ACV should be diluted with water before being applied topically or added to a dog's food or water to avoid irritation or other adverse effects.

Overall, while more research is needed to fully understand the benefits of organic ACV for dogs, current evidence suggests that it can be a useful addition to a dog's diet or health regimen when used properly.

Can you believe it? Charlie, the four-legged boarder, is on his 6th stay with us! That's right, I said 6th. This furry friend of ours is such a good boy that we let him snooze in one of our fancy guest rooms with his own bed. Talk about living the high life! He's so well-behaved, I'm starting to wonder if I should trade in my "kids" for a pack of Charlies. We still have the pleasure of his company for another 18 nights, and to be honest, I wouldn't mind if he stayed forever. If you're planning to leave your beloved furry friend behind while you gallivant around the world, fret not, for Dog Connect is here to help! Our team of professionals will pamper your pooch with the high life treatment they deserve. Don't let your pet miss out on the luxury lifestyle while you're away. Get in touch with us and let us take care of your precious pup. Who knows, they might even end up having a better vacation than you!

A happy home for a pet is a happy home for you. 🐕💙
Nice to meet you, I am Puma and I am a senior labrador. I was found when I was only 15 kg and I gave birth to three puppies when I was in foster care. I am doing so much netter now! I have gained weight, I love my walks and I take good care of my pups.
I will be spayed soon and now I am looking for a loving family who can bring me to the vet from time to time as my immune system is not in balance yet and I have a skin allergy.
Interested to add Puma to your home? Call 0733 571 125/0798 303 940 or look me up on the KSPCA website https://kspca-kenya.org/adopt-a-pet/.
