Grooming is an essential part of pet care that every owner should take seriously! Here are three quick tips for keeping your dog looking their best:

🐕Brush their coat regularly to remove loose hair, prevent matting, and distribute natural oils for a healthy, shiny coat. Different breeds have different grooming needs, so make sure to use the right brush for your dog's coat type.

💅🏽Keep your pup's nails trimmed to a comfortable length. Long nails can cause discomfort and even lead to health issues. Use a dog-specific nail clipper and be careful not to cut into the quick, which can cause pain and bleeding.

👂🏽Check and clean your dog's ears regularly to prevent infections. Use a gentle ear cleaning solution and cotton balls, avoiding deep insertion into the ear canal. If you notice redness, swelling, or an unusual odor, consult your vet.

This month's spotlight breed is the beagle! Beagles are curious and friendly, making them great pets for families and active individuals. But beyond being a great furry friend, they're also hard workers. Beagles have a remarkable sense of smell, and they often work as sniffers for the Department of Homeland Security. Give your beagle the best care with these tips:
-Dental disease is a big concern for beagles. Be sure to talk to your vet about getting your pup's teeth cleaned regularly.
-Beagles tend to give chase, so make sure you always leash your dog when you go out on walks.
-Most beagles don't need to be brushed too often- just once a week will do!

🕶 Summer Pet Care Tip: If you've ever grown your hair out, you know that long hair doesn't make the summer heat any easier to deal with. But with pets, it isn't quite the same deal. The layers in a dog's coat actually protect them from overheating and sunburn. While you can trim your pup's hair, you should never shave them. The same goes for cats- instead of a haircut, try brushing them more often than normal to avoid the problems associated with hot summer days.

Summer vacation is a break for kids, but the rest of us don't get months off of work! If you're traveling for work in the next few months, ensure your pets are well taken care of when you're gone. Pawsitively Spoiled is here for you so you can get down to business.

People often think of cats as lazy animals. While this may be true for some kitties, they can move quickly when they need to. Adult cats can run about 12 miles per hour, but if they really need to get going they can hit speeds up to 30!

☀ Summer Pet Care Tip: The summer heat isn't letting up, and that means you shouldn't get lax about looking after your pets, especially when they're enjoying some fun in the sun. It's a good idea to get familiar with the signs of overheating in dogs, and get them to a cool, shaded area if you notice any. Things like excessive panting, increased heart rate, drooling, and weakness can all indicate a problem. Luckily, the sitters at Pawsitively Spoiled know what to look for and keep your pups safe, even during a hot summer walk.

Happy Fourth of July! Whether you celebrate by heading to the beach or firing up the grill, we hope you have a pawsitively amazing day.

07/01/2024

Summer break is heating up! As you get ready for your July trips, be sure things are safe at home while you're gone. Here are a few tips to help you prepare for vacation:
-Check all windows and doors. Make sure all latches work properly and no windows are left unlocked.
-Take out the trash. Nothing's worse than getting home to rotten smells!
-Ask a neighbor to pick up your mail or packages left at the doorstep.
-Arrange for pet care! Instead of shipping your furry friends off to a boarding facility, schedule one of our pet sitters to visit throughout the day.

Boarding your pets while you're on vacation just isn't the best way to make sure they're cared for. Pets do much better at home, where they can eat their own food and recognize their environment. Even if you're out of town for over a week, pet sitting is still your best option! The sitters at Pawsitively Spoiled would be glad to come up with a visit schedule that matches your and your pets' needs.

☀🐶Summer Pet Care Tip: Pets need adequate hydration, too! While humans can vary their hydration sources beyond just water, animals need plenty of fresh, cool water available at all times. We recommend putting multiple water bowls around your home and yard to make sure it's always there when your pet needs it.

06/22/2024

Pawsitively Spoiled has you covered for a range of services so you can skip the boarding! Here's what we offer you:
-Regular visits while you're on vacation
-Visits spread throughout the day as needed (15-20 minutes in the morning, evening, at lunch, or at bedtime)
-Daily dog walking
-Accommodating special dietary concerns as needed

🐾 Let's talk about Labs! Labrador retrievers are among the most recognizable dog breeds, and these pups are popular for a reason. They have a friendly and outgoing temperament, and their high intelligence means labs are quite easy to train. Here are a few quick care tips to ensure your lab lives life to the fullest:
🟧 Ensure your Lab gets plenty of exercise—daily walks, playtime, and swimming are great options.
🟧 Regular brushing is essential to manage their shedding. Labs have a short, dense coat that sheds seasonally.
🟧 Maintain a balanced diet to prevent obesity, which labs are prone to if not monitored closely.
