Heat Advisory for Doggie Daycare
🌞 Attention Doggie Daycare Community! 🌞

As temperatures rise, we are taking extra precautions to ensure the safety and comfort of all our furry friends. Here’s what we’re doing and what you can do to keep your pups cool and happy during this heat wave:

What We’re Doing at the Daycare:
Shorter Play Groups with More Breaks ⏰
We’re reducing the duration of play sessions and increasing the number of breaks so pups can rest, hydrate, and cool down.
Hydration Stations 💧
We’ve set up multiple water stations around the play areas to ensure constant access to fresh, cool water.
Cooling Treats 🐶🍧
Our team will be offering homemade dog-friendly popsicles to help keep the pups refreshed. These are made from safe, dog-friendly ingredients like chicken broth, and PB.

Recommendations for Pup Parents:
Avoid the Hottest Parts of the Day ⏰
Limit outdoor activities to early morning or late evening when temperatures are cooler.
Never Leave Dogs in Cars 🚗❌
Cars can heat up quickly, even with windows cracked. Avoid leaving your dog in the car at all costs.
Recognize Signs of Heatstroke 🚨
Watch for excessive panting, drooling, lethargy, vomiting, and uncoordinated movements. If you suspect heatstroke, move your dog to a cool place and contact a vet immediately.
Adjust Exercise Routines 🏃‍♀️
Reduce the intensity and duration of exercise. Try indoor play or training activities to keep them stimulated without overheating.
Protect Paws from Hot Surfaces 🔥
Asphalt and sand can become extremely hot and burn your dog’s paws. Test surfaces with your hand before letting your dog walk on them.

Grooming Tips ✂️

Regular brushing helps remove excess fur, and consider a trim for long-haired breeds!
Your dog’s safety and well-being are our top priorities. Let's work together to keep them cool and comfortable during this hot spell!

Stay cool and take care,
Your K9 Coach Family

July 4th is around the corner, and while you may be looking forward to it, your pets are not. Many pets experience fear and anxiety that you may not even recognize. Whether you're traveling or having a party at home, we recommend boarding them. We can keep them safe and distract them with fun and activities. A lot of pet parents feel the same, and we tend to fill up fast. So, book early!

Due to the events of the F3 tornado that hit the Valley View & Sanger, TX area, the Animal Hospital on Milam Road's wonderful staff has gone out into the community & rescued many fur babies and brought them back into the clinic for shelter and care.

There are many pups that they have under their care as well as that have needed treatment. One of their lovely guests is named Willow & was found on the side of the road by a wonderful human & she has a broken leg & pelvis that needs an important extensive surgery! Funds will go towards Willow's surgery, vaccinations, medications, & other treated injuries! They also have some pups that have found their owners but will be staying at the clinic at no cost due to their homes being destroyed or them being hospitalized themselves that funds will go towards.

We would love your help in raising money! These sweet babies have been through so much trauma already & we appreciate absolutely everything that this community has already done to help them! If you feel led to donate to the cause, please use this link: https://www.gofundme.com/f/aid-for-tornadoaffected-dogs-in-sanger

Last week, in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, Destination Pet’s field leaders participated in QPR Gatekeeper training and certification with none other than the incredible Dr. Mia Cary. QPR stands for “Question, Persuade, Refer” and is a data-driven and conversation-based way of supporting folks who are experiencing su***de ideation.

In our commitment to being the provider of choice for pets and those who care for them (feel free to tweak), we believe that workplace wellbeing starts with ensuring our leaders have the training and resources to create cultures and practices of wellbeing in their pet and vet care centers.

🎉 Introducing our Towel Donation Drive! 🎉

We know that every pup deserves to look and feel their best, which is why we're calling on all dog lovers to lend a helping paw. When you donate a clean, gently-used towel to our cause, you're not just giving a gift – you're helping us create a cozy oasis for our four-legged guests.

But wait, there's more! As a heartfelt thank-you for your generosity, we're offering $5 off your next groom when you donate a towel. That's right – pamper your pooch while making a difference in the lives of dogs in need.

Here's how it works:

🐶 Bring in a towel: Raid your linen closet or pick up an extra towel during your next shopping trip. Every towel counts!

🛁 Schedule a groom: Treat your furry friend to a day of luxury with our expert grooming services. From stylish haircuts to relaxing baths, we'll have your pup looking and feeling their best.

💰 Enjoy your discount: Present your donated towel at the time of your grooming appointment and watch as $5 magically disappears from your bill. It's our way of saying thank you for being a paw-some part of our community.

But the best part? Your generosity doesn't end there. Every towel donated will be lovingly used to provide comfort and warmth to dogs in our care. From drying off after a splash in the pool to snuggling up for naptime, your donation will make a world of difference.

So what are you waiting for? Join us in spreading love, warmth, and wagging tails throughout our community. Schedule your groom today and let's make a difference, one towel at a time!

Thank you for being a part of our dog-loving family. Together, we're making tails wag and hearts smile.

With love and gratitude,
K-9 Coach Family
