📣Introducing 'Ruff Cuts': Delightfully ImPAWfect Dog Treats!

🛑 NOT an April Fools' joke! 🛑

Doggos don’t care about looks - they care about taste. While not every treat comes out looking like a 'Best in Show' contender (umm, looking at you, duck heads!), our Ruff Cuts prove that imPAWfection can be pawsitively delicious! 🐾

These second-chance snacks may be a little wonky, slightly quirky, or cut a bit funky, but they’re still packed with drool-worthy goodness, at a discounted price! Despite their unique shapes, Ruff Cuts will never compromise on quality. Made with the same high-quality, single-ingredient goodness as our regular treats, they’re simply a little smaller, a little off-center, or just not quite as pretty.

In a world obsessed with perfection, Ruff Cuts celebrate the beauty of being different. They remind us that it’s what’s inside that counts - and that sometimes, a little imperfection makes life (and snack time) even better 🥩

🐶 How to Get Yours: We’ll post any available Ruff Cuts in our stories each week. If we have any in stock, you’ll see them there, along with pricing details (which vary based on the treat). Keep an eye out as these underdog snacks probably won’t last long!

01/28/2025

Understanding Titers for Dogs:

A titer is a simple blood test that measures the level of antibodies in a dog’s system, providing insight into their immunity against certain diseases like distemper, parvovirus, and rabies. During the test, a qualified professional collects a small blood sample and sends it to a lab, where antibody levels are assessed. If levels are sufficient, it indicates the pup is protected and may not need a booster vaccination at that time.

Key Benefits:

1. Avoids Unnecessary Vaccinations: Titers help determine if boosters are needed, reducing unnecessary “routine” vaccinations while still ensuring your dog stays protected.
2. Personalized Care: Every dog’s immune response is unique, and titer testing creates a tailored approach to managing their vaccination schedule.
3. Ideal for Sensitive Dogs: For dogs with a history of sensitivities or health concerns, titers provide an alternative to blindly administering boosters.
4. Convenient and Accessible: Some services make titer testing hassle-free, even offering at-home collection and quick lab results.

When Should Dogs Be Titer Tested? -Expert recommendations vary slightly, but a common guideline is to test for distemper and parvovirus immunity every three years. If your dog was recently vaccinated, waiting at least three weeks before testing allows accurate results. Puppies should also be tested at least three weeks after their final vaccination, and not before they are 16 weeks old.

Exciting News for Central Alabama Pet Parents! - We recently learned that Affordable Pet Labs is bringing their convenient services to our area. With their services, experienced Animal Care Associates conduct in-home sample collections and lab results are sent directly to you within 48–72 hours. Convenient and accessible, right?! Personally, we are stoked!

❗Trigger Warning: This post includes personal experiences related to surgery and breast cancer risk. Please proceed with care❗

Hello, wonderful Doggo's Choice community - Michaela here 👋🏻

I wanted to take a moment to share a personal update with all of you. On September 5th, I underwent a bilateral mastectomy. This was a preventative measure after some recent health concerns and receiving new information about my increased risk for developing breast cancer. It was a decision made with consideration of my heritage (my maternal grandmother had breast cancer X 2) and deep thought for the future - both for my own health and for the people (and pets!) I cherish the most.

As today marks the first day of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I want to remind everyone to prioritize their health, perform regular self-exams, and advocate for their well-being. Early detection can make all the difference, so please, take care of yourselves and encourage your loved ones to do the same.

As I continue healing and navigating a few remaining post-op restrictions, I am focused on refreshing our website and updating our social media presence. I know it has been a bit quiet around here lately. 2024 has been something, I tell ya! Between my procedure and Daniel’s return to the corporate world earlier this year, we have had to decline more event invitations than we would like. Nevertheless, your understanding, patience, and support mean everything to us. To those who have stuck with us through this period of transition–THANK YOU! You are truly amazing, and your loyalty reminds us that we have a community of friends cheering us on 📣

Moments like these remind me of the strength it takes to face the unknown and the beauty that comes from embracing the journey 🌹 Much love to all of those who have fought, are fighting, and whose fight is yet to come. I hope this serves as a gentle reminder to prioritize your health and face life’s challenges with courage and resilience.

Cheers,

~M ❤️

Hi everyone,

I wanted to take a moment to explain why things have been a bit quiet here on Facebook. Since our re-brand this past Spring, we've been in the process of requesting a page name change, and it has taken FAR longer than expected to get it addressed by Facebook. Unfortunately, this has caused a bit of a delay in our activity here.

Rest assured, we haven’t forgotten about you! We’re working on getting everything sorted (while trying to avoid starting over with a brand new page) and we can’t wait to be more present here again. Thank you so much for your patience and continued support—we really appreciate it!

Stay tuned, and we’ll be back to sharing updates, inspiration, and more very soon. Happy Fall, Y'all! 🍁

🐾 Unraveling the Mystery of Canine Allergies: Part 4: Food Allergies 🐾

The final part of our series is here! 🎉 The final component of this series is here! BUT, I am going to start by saying this is a convoluted topic, and there is no way we could cover it all in one post. This will therefore be a very basic overview.

Now, let's dive into the basics of food allergies in dogs! Many pet owners think their dog's itchy skin or tummy troubles are due to food allergies, but TRUE food allergies are rare. It's often actually a food 'intolerance', which can lead to chronic issues like skin problems, ear infections, and diarrhea.

The Gut-Skin Connection: Your dog's gut microbiota is crucial for digestion, nutrient absorption, and immune function. When bad bacteria take over, it can lead to skin issues and other health problems.

Processed pet foods can contain harmful additives like BHA, BHT, and sodium carboxyl-methyl-cellulose (a thickener banned for human consumption). Generally, if you can't pronounce an ingredient, it's best to avoid it!

Elimination Diet: To identify food triggers, try an elimination diet. Remove common problem ingredients and introduce single proteins one at a time, watching for reactions. This helps pinpoint the culprits and allows you to adjust your dog's diet accordingly. Once you find the triggers, focus on rebalancing your dog's gut with probiotics, prebiotics, and a species-appropriate diet.

Bottom Line: If your fuzz kid has constant skin, ear, or tummy troubles, their food might be the culprit 🐶❤️

As we near the end of Mental Health Awareness Month, we want to take a moment to remind folks that the mental health of both pets and their people, is incredibly important. In a world that often prioritizes hustle and productivity, it is crucial to remember that our mental health matters. And just like us, dogs can experience stress, anxiety, and depression. Here are some tips to help keep your K9 BFF happy and mentally healthy:

1. Regular Exercise: A fantastic way to reduce stress and anxiety in dogs is to keep their minds engaged and bodies active.
2. Mental Stimulation: Puzzle toys, training sessions, and new experiences can keep your pup's mind sharp and engaged.
3. Social Interaction: Regular (appropriate) interaction with other dogs and people can prevent feelings of loneliness and anxiety.
4. Comfortable Environment: A safe and comfortable space for your pup to retreat to can make a world of difference.
5. Positive Reinforcement: Rewarding good behavior can boost your dog's confidence and happiness.

Taking care of our own mental health is just as important! Here are some simple ways to nurture your mental well-being:

1. Stay Active: Our physical and mental health are deeply connected. Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and sufficient sleep can positively impact your mental well-being.
2. Practice Mindfulness & Meditation: Focus on your breath, your surroundings, and the present moment.
3. Connect with Others: Spend time with loved ones and engage in meaningful conversations. Sharing experiences and emotions can be incredibly healing.
4. Set Boundaries: Learn to say no and set healthy boundaries. Protect your time and energy to focus on what truly matters to you.
5. Seek Support: If you're feeling overwhelmed, it is okay to ask for help. Whether it's a trusted friend, family member, or mental health professional, reaching out can make a significant difference.

Finally, let's also extend compassion to those around us. Mental health struggles are often invisible, and a little kindness can go a long way. Listen without judgment, offer support, and create a safe space for others to share their experiences 💕

❗Disclaimer: We believe in maintaining transparency with our loyal followers. While it's not necessary to share all the details of our current situation, we want to be open with those who have supported us from the beginning, and we do not want any silence around this matter to be misinterpreted.

Friends,

We hope this message finds you and your furry friends well. We wanted to share some important news with you regarding our page.

As you know, due to the very recent trademark issue, we have to make some changes to our business name and logo. While we have updated our page name to "Formerly” (known as), we have decided that we do not want it to remain this way for 60 days – which is Facebook’s rule for name changes. Unfortunately, this means we will be temporarily shutting down our page while we undergo this transition.

This situation has been challenging and emotionally taxing, especially given the circumstances under which it arose. Had it been brought to our attention and presented differently, it would have been much more palatable. However, we believe that altruism and integrity will always prevail over malice, and we are ever grateful to those who have shown support and reached out to us through this.

We have been working diligently to establish a new name and logo that reflects our commitment to quality and your pets' happiness. However, rushing this process under threats of legal action feels disingenuous, and we believe that taking our time will lead to a more genuine and thoughtful outcome. Successful entrepreneurs know when it’s time to temporarily suspend an effort and take a step back to evaluate a strategic plan, ensuring that any resources invested will not outweigh the likelihood of success. So, WE have taken our power back by intentionally deciding that instead of moving apace with a revised brand that we feel an urgency to create, we believe that a better long-term plan involves more deliberate efforts to consolidate what we have learned, revise our intentions, and prepare a re-invigorated attempt at reaching our goals…..whether that means we choose to focus on the fulfillment we already get from our full-time careers and our family, or continuing on with our side business that has given us so much joy. When we started this (side) business, we agreed that its purpose was rooted in intrinsic gains, and if the day ever came that we no longer felt that, then it would be time to re-evaluate. In short, we have chosen to take this time to assess whether that enjoyment is still enough to surmount the accompanying demands of owning a small business in addition to our already-full schedules.

Please know that this is not goodbye, but rather a brief pause. Many of you follow us on Instagram, and that page is currently in operation under a new, temporary name. You know how to find us when you need us 😉

Thank you for being a part of our community and for your unwavering support. We will keep you updated on our decisions and hope that you will be here to re-connect with us when the time comes.

For now, take good care of yourselves, and let's continue to spread kindness and compassion – it's a rare treasure in our world, and its impact cannot be overstated 💕

Much love,
Dr. M
