We have people yell and argue over a $15.00 vaccine. They argue that they have the right to “NOT” vaccinate “THEIR” animals. They do…but I also have the right to follow the law and to refuse service for an unvaccinated animal in order to protect myself and my staff. Rabies is real and it is 99-100% fatal in humans. This is not based on a few years of information. This virus has been around for thousands of years and the vaccine was first used almost 150 years ago. That’s pretty sufficient supporting data.

Did you know that dogs can get frost bite too?

This Homemade Paw Wax is easy to make and will keep your dog's feet safe and comfortable in the snow and especially salt! ❄️ 🐾 Simply massage a layer of paw wax onto your dog's pads before heading out for an adventure 😃

Why Paw Wax is a Must-Have:

❤️‍🩹 Protect Against Salt & Chemicals
Streets and sidewalks can be full of harsh chemicals and salt in the winter, which can be painful and harmful to your dog's paws. Putting on paw wax forms a protective barrier to keep your dogs pads safe!

❄️ Prevents Ice Build-Up
Ice and snowballs can accumulate between the toes of furry-footed breeds, causing discomfort.

🐾 Moisturizes & Heals
Cold weather can dry out and crack paw pads.

👅 Natural & Safe
This recipe uses all-natural ingredients, ensuring it's safe for your dog even if they lick their paws.

Facts!

Want your animals to stay as healthy as possible?

I'm sure you do. I would wonder about you if you said no! 😉

But most pet parents are missing the most important points.

Remember, our animals are NOT extensions of US. They are unique creations SEPARATE from US.

Ouch, this might have hurt. Sorry my friends.

But when we entangle our emotions, our feelings, our thoughts with our animals, THEY take on OUR stuff. And that's not always a good thing.

What animals thrive on, and what they want from us are:

1. Food that is as closely designed to what nature intended them to eat as possible. This means that ultra-processed food (dry kibble, horse "feed") is NOT appropriate. Our animals (as well as us!!) are not meant to eat food the body can't recognize.

2. Freedom to be who they are. They are unique individuals created with special gifts to entertain, comfort, teach, and to protect us; they are not meant to be sponges for our negative emotions, stress, and everyday challenges. Whenever we rely on our animals to "save" us and to absorb all of our "stuff", they step up to the plate. But that's never beneficial (physically or mentally) for them. It's okay to share your thoughts and feelings with your animals, just as if you would a good friend, but we can't suffocate them with our baggage day after day.

3. Freedom to MOVE!! It's so important for us, and it's so important for our animals to romp, jump, run, and have freedom!!
Horses especially need movement, and so do our pets; not only for physical health, but for the psychological well-being as well.
Cats confined to the house need stimulation in the form of climbing, exploring, and chasing. Dogs of all breeds need space to roam and run. Horses need open areas to allow them to move freely. Many behavioral issues stem from inadequate freedom to move.

There are more points I could cover, but this is a great start for considering what we can do to make our companion animals more comfortable and happy in their lives with us.
