When one pup leaves, another one magically shows up! 😆 We picked up one of our most favorite girls. This is Miss Violet, one of my regular walkers and we're so glad to have her for a whole week! Gonna get ALL the cuddles in.

Hey friends! I'm sure most of you know, weather can be brutal on your dog’s paws especially during summer. The temperature of asphalt can rise fast and become much hotter than the air temperature. You may not realize it, of course, since you probably don’t go very far in your bare feet, but your pup can easily get ouchies from hot paws. Even hot beach sand can burn your dog’s feet.

Not all our clients have fur...... sometimes, they look a little like this! Meet Buck everyone. He's a bearded dragon I'm caring for this week, along with his dog and cat sisters. Fun fact: he has those white patches on his back because he's shedding! They shed their entire skin every 20-30 days. Cool!

How do you feel about dogs using your curblawn.... or if you don't have sidewalks (like my neighborhood), the egde of your lawn?
Unpopular opinion.
As a dog walker, I see a lot more signs that look like the one on the right than the one on the left and it can be a little frustrating. Especially in the middle of a sidewalk. I have to physically go out into the street and around that property to avoid the dog even touching the lawn. Several houses per walk. Several walks per day. You can see how it gets old?
This message is for those of you who are dog friendly .. thank you for being kind to your local neighborhood dog walkers!

Happy Monday! Lets take a moment and discuss the importance of leash training your dog.
Leash training your dog is like teaching them good manners in the human world—it's essential for their safety and the safety of others. When you walk your dog on a leash, you have more control over their movements, preventing them from running into dangerous situations like traffic or confronting other dogs without permission. Plus, it's a legal requirement in many places, so having a well-trained pup on a leash keeps you both out of trouble.
But leash training isn't just about safety; it's also about building a strong bond with your furry friend. By teaching them to walk politely by your side, you're reinforcing your role as their leader and creating a sense of trust between you. It's a chance to communicate and understand each other better, which strengthens your relationship in the long run.
Additionally, leash training provides mental stimulation for your dog. Going for walks allows them to explore new scents, sights, and sounds, which keeps their minds engaged and helps prevent boredom and destructive behaviors at home. It's like a little adventure for them every time they step outside with you.
Overall, leash training is an investment in your dog's well-being and your relationship with them. It gives you both the freedom to enjoy the world together while staying safe and connected. So grab that leash, hit the pavement, and embark on countless adventures with your best furry friend by your side!
