Bonnie’s face when I told her the heat lamps weren’t there to turn the chicks into nuggets 😆🐥💜

We have been a little extra quiet on here and here’s why..

Two weeks ago I let my personal dogs in my yard for some free time like I do every day. Envy went after a squirrel at full sprint, miscalculated her leap over a small garden rock and slammed her knee into the rock. Considering the noise it made on impact, she was non weight bearing and the laceration on her knee we headed to urgent care for x rays. It turns out Envy had shattered her patella.

Off to the VCA South Shore Animal Hospital we went.. Unfortunately these injuries are very uncommon in dogs and the recovery process can be very long. So far we have had the best outcome. The surgeon was able to go in and wire together three significant pieces of patella bone as well as a bone graft. If everything goes well the bones will start to fuse together and we will have some sort of Frankenstein knee cap. Envy is going to be casted from hip to toe for three months with external fixtures on her knee, if that goes as planned we will have a year plus of rehab and physical therapy.

If anyone can take anything away from this it’s get pet insurance. We are already at 14k with the surgery, hospitalization, rechecks/cast changes, and medications. When all is said and done with aftercare, rehab, pt, medications etc we will be looking closer to about 20k if we are lucky. We were already pre approved through Trupanion for the surgery and what a relief to not have that bill hovering over my head on top of everything else. This was a total fluke accident, she’s jumped over that rock a million times. It only sticks out of the ground about 10 inches. If you’re on the fence about it - GET THE PET INSURANCE.

We have resumed business as close to normal as possible as I am having to take her to more follow up appointments etc. We are so excited to be back and can’t wait to share more of our new pups in training on here with all of you but figured we owed everyone an update first. Thank you to everyone for your patience and understanding during this time! 🐾❤️‍🩹

☀️ As the summer heat sets in, it's important to keep our furry friends safe and cool! Heat stroke in dogs is a serious concern during hot weather, but with the right knowledge and precautions, you can help prevent this life-threatening condition. Here are some important tips to keep your canine companion safe this summer:

🥵 Signs of Heat Stroke: Watch out for symptoms such as excessive panting, drooling, rapid heartbeat, lethargy, vomiting, and collapse. If your dog shows any of these signs, it could indicate heat stroke, and immediate action is crucial.

❄️ How to Keep Your Dog Cool: Provide plenty of fresh water for your dog to drink, and make sure they have access to shaded areas. Avoid exercising them during the hottest parts of the day, and if they need to go out for potty breaks, keep it short! You can also offer cooling mats, frozen treats, or a kiddie pool for them to splash around in.

🚨 What to Do if You Think Your Dog Has Heat Stroke: If you suspect your dog is suffering from heat stroke, move them to a cool area immediately. Wet their fur with cool water and use a fan to help lower their body temperature. Contact your veterinarian right away for further guidance and treatment.

☀️ Remember, prevention is key when it comes to heat stroke in dogs. Stay vigilant, keep your pup cool and hydrated, and be prepared to act quickly if you notice any concerning symptoms. Let's make this summer a safe and enjoyable season for our four-legged friends! 🐾💛

“Dopamine is not about the pursuit of happiness, it is about the happiness of pursuit.” -Dr. Robert Sapolsky • This couldn’t be more true. Understanding the connection between anticipation, effort, and reward by focusing on timing and intensity is crucial. While dopamine isn’t the sole influencer in a dog’s behavior, it plays a significant role. A basic understanding of dopamine dynamics can greatly benefit any training as it impacts a dogs motivation and learning processes for better outcomes and stronger bonds🤙🏼🖤

It’s been a minute since I posted some Envy obedience and figured this was a good way to get into the holiday spirit ✨🎄🐾❤️
