Spent the evening in the kennel with our Christmas boarders and of course the supervisors Jazz and Diva. Diva is the dorm matron, lol. She loves visiting with stressed boarders. Her calmness is comforting to them. We listened to Handel's Messiah. Happy Holidays!

It has been a crazy busy summer for us at the Inn! Now as vacations slow down as the school year approaches, there is more time to go through the backlog of our guests' photos enjoying their stay with us. Here are siblings Rita and Harley having a blast!

Welcome again to the Yellow Dog UK wonderful world of common sense. Would you go up to a stranger in the street and give her a hug or stick your hand in their face? Well I wouldn't but it happens all to often unfortunately with dogs .... What do you do when you can see someone approaching you and your dog?

As irritating the smokey haze caused by the northern wildfires is to us, it can cause health problems for our pets as well. Smoke from wildfires and other large blazes affects pets, horses, livestock and wildlife. If you can see or feel the effects of smoke yourself, take precautions to keep your animals safe.

Animals with cardiovascular or respiratory disease are especially at risk from smoke and should be closely watched during all periods of poor air quality. If your pets experience changes in respiration, coughing, fatigue, inflammation of eyes or mouth, or excessive discharge to eyes or nose, please contact us.

Tips to protect pets:

-Keep pets indoors as much as possible, and keep your windows shut.
-Birds are particularly susceptible and should not be allowed outside when smoke or particulate matter are present.
-Let dogs and cats outside only for brief bathroom breaks if air quality alerts are in effect.
-Avoid intense outdoor exercise during periods of poor air quality. Exercise pets when dust and smoke has settled.

Bobo and Lily always have a great time during their vacations with us! Their mom says that they are naughty at home, but they are as good as gold when they visit with us.😊

We respect the needs of shy dogs and meet them on their terms. Slow and easy with lots of positive reinforcement builds trusting relationships.

On this day in 1928, Buddy, a German Shepherd, becomes the 1st guide dog for a US citizen Morris Frank.

Morris Frank was a blind man from Nashville. His father read him an article by Dorothy Eustis, a woman living in Switzerland who had seen shepherds training dogs to lead blind people get around. Excited by the idea, Frank wrote a letter to Eustis and received a response letter 30 days later inviting him to come see for himself. Frank then took a ship to Europe and trained extensively with a dog that had been bred specifically to lead a blind person. The training was hard, but after weeks with the dog, Frank could get around the nearby Swiss village holding tightly to a harness to which Buddy was strapped.

Morris Frank returned to America. From the day he got off the ship, he was successful. At one point, in front of a group of dumbfounded reporters, Buddy led Frank safely across a busy New York street. “I shall never forget the next three minutes, Ten-ton trucks rocketing past, cabs blowing their horns in our ears, drivers shouting at us. When we finally got to the other side, and I realized what a really magnificent job he had done” Frank later wrote.
When Frank returned to Nashville, people were amazed at the sight of the blind man and his dog successfully navigating busy sidewalks and couldn’t believe that it was the same blind boy they had so recently taken pity on. What amazed people the most was that Buddy had an ability best known as “intelligent disobedience,” which meant that he would obey Morris except when executing that command would result in harm to his master. If there was a low hanging branch ahead on the sidewalk, for instance, Buddy knew how to navigate around it to the point where Morris wouldn’t hurt his head on it.

About this time, Frank, Eustis and several others cofounded The Seeing Eye, an institution set up to train guide dogs and their blind masters. Today, the organization reports that it has, in its 80-year history, trained 14,000 dogs. Buddy is considered the first. In 1978, on the 50th anniversary of the founding of the school, the U.S. issued a commemorative stamp in honor of The Seeing Eye.

The Easter holiday, while fun and colorful, can be challenging for our four-legged friends.

🌺First, the lovely Easter lilies are highly toxic to our cats-- even just with simple contact.
🍬Then, Easter is the only time that chocolates, potentially xylitol-containing hard candies and gum, along with small toys are left on floors in what our dogs and cats mistake for food-puzzle Easter eggs.
🐣Finally, Easter grass is so tempting for both cats and dogs to eat, which can lead to gastrointestinal blockages.
Keep your Easter lilies out of reach of your cats, and try to keep Easter basket contents away from your pets or monitor them after the Easter Bunny makes the deliveries. Also keep holiday foods on our plates and out of our pets' dishes.
Have a safe holiday!

March 29th is National Mom and Pop Business Day, so we are celebrating here at the Chandler's Clixworld Inn. We are a small business, not a large chain operation. Our staff is the two of us, Auntie Diane and Uncle Ron, lol! We give loving care to your dogs as if they were our own.

We received this lovely review today.

"We are very fortunate to have found Clixworld Inn where our dog Gunnie can stay when we travel. I know it’s a good fit for her as Gunnie is always happy when I drop her off. Often while we are away I will email Diane to update us on how Gunnie is doing and she will always reassure me all is well. Ron and Diane are a very special couple in the way they care for the dogs staying at their Inn. It’s never easy leaving our pets with someone but, I definitely feel confident Gunnie is at home with Ron and Diane looking after her. Sherri Nelson"

Thank you, Sherri. We love our Gunnie Girl and treasure her visits with us!
