❄️🐾 Taking Care of Your Dog in Cold Weather 🐾❄️

As the winter chill sets in, it's important to remember that our furry friends need extra attention and care to stay comfortable and safe during the cold months. 🐕💖 Just like us, dogs can be affected by low temperatures, snow, and icy conditions, so here are some tips to help keep your pup happy and healthy all winter long! 🐾❄️

1️⃣ Keep Walks Short and Sweet: Cold weather can be tough on your dog's paws and joints, so consider limiting walks or keeping them short and brisk. If you’re heading out in freezing temps, make sure to dress your dog in a warm coat and booties to protect their paws from salt, ice, and snow.

2️⃣ Paw Care is a Must: Icy sidewalks and roads can damage your dog's paws. After walks, check their feet for ice buildup, cuts, or cracks. Use a paw balm to soothe their pads and prevent any discomfort. If you notice any signs of injury, consult your vet right away!

3️⃣ Create a Cozy Indoor Haven: When it’s too cold to go outside, make sure your dog has a warm and comfy spot inside to curl up. A soft bed away from drafts will help them stay cozy and avoid the chill. Don’t forget, dogs feel the cold just like we do!

4️⃣ Hydration is Key: Even though it's cold outside, dogs still need to drink water! Make sure their water bowl is always full and not frozen. Keeping your dog hydrated is just as important in the winter months as it is in the summer.

5️⃣ Watch Out for Hypothermia & Frostbite: Just like humans, dogs can suffer from hypothermia or frostbite if they’re exposed to extreme cold for too long. If your dog is shivering or acting lethargic, get them inside and warm up immediately. Look out for signs of frostbite on their ears, tail, or paws, especially after long exposure to freezing temperatures.

6️⃣ Feed Them Well: Cold weather requires more energy, so make sure your dog is getting a well-balanced diet with enough calories to help maintain body heat. Consult your vet if you're unsure about their nutritional needs in winter.

7️⃣ Keep Their Coat Groomed: Regular brushing helps remove mats and tangles that could trap moisture and make your dog cold. Some breeds, especially those with thick coats, may need less frequent baths in winter to keep them insulated. Always dry them thoroughly if they get wet!

Let’s all do our part to keep our four-legged companions safe and warm this winter! 🧣🐶 They depend on us to be their guardians, and by following these simple tips, we can ensure they enjoy the winter months without any discomfort.

Stay warm and cuddle up, fur parents! 🐾❤️

Grooming isn’t just about making your dog look good—it’s essential for their health!
Regular brushing removes loose fur and reduces shedding, while nail trims prevent painful overgrowth.
Grooming and/or Deshed sessions are also an excellent opportunity to check for lumps, bumps, or signs of discomfort.
Start early and make it a positive experience to help your dog feel relaxed during grooming. A well-groomed dog is a happy and healthy dog! 🐕✂️
Did you know we have a professional groomer on site Monday – Friday?

Puppy Training Challenge: Master the 100-Foot Recall! 🐾✨

✅ Builds trust and confidence between you and your dog.
✅ Gives you peace of mind during off-leash adventures.

How to Join the Challenge:
1️⃣ Train Your Puppy: Practice recall from increasing distances, adding distractions gradually (other dogs, toys, or treats nearby). Need tips? We’re here to help!

2️⃣ Post Your Progress: Share a video of your puppy successfully completing a recall from 100 feet or more with distractions. Don’t forget to tag us so we can celebrate your success!

3️⃣ Enter the Drawing: Everyone who participates will be entered into a raffle for 2 FREE Nights of Boarding!

🎉 Challenge Deadline: Submit your entry by Feburary 1st to qualify.

Lets get those pups working hard!

🐾 Scoop the P**p, Keep Our World Clean! 🐾

Dog owners, let’s talk about something we all deal with—p**p! 🐶 While it’s not the most glamorous part of owning a pup, scooping the p**p is one of the easiest and most important ways we can be responsible pet owners. Here’s why it matters:

1️⃣ Protects Our Environment
Dog waste isn’t fertilizer! In fact, it’s a pollutant. When left on the ground, it can wash into storm drains and contaminate water sources with harmful bacteria. By scooping the p**p, you’re helping keep our waterways clean. 🌊

2️⃣ Keeps Our Neighborhoods Safe
No one wants to step in it (especially kids playing outside). Picking up after your dog ensures public spaces stay clean and enjoyable for everyone.

3️⃣ Stops the Spread of Disease
Dog p**p can carry parasites and bacteria that are harmful to both humans and other dogs. Scooping it up quickly helps prevent the spread of illnesses in your community.

💡 Pro Tip: Always carry extra bags on walks, and if you forget one, kindly ask another dog owner—they’ve probably been there, too!

Let’s all do our part to keep our neighborhoods clean, safe, and welcoming for dogs and humans alike. 🐾

What are your go-to tips for responsible p**p-scooping? Let’s hear them in the comments! 👇

Health Tip Thursday: Keeping Your Dog Hydrated

"Health Tip Thursday: Hydration isn’t just important for us—it’s vital for our furry friends too! 💧🐶

🔹 Why Hydration Matters:
Water makes up more than 70% of your dog’s body, so even a small amount of dehydration can lead to serious health issues. Dehydration can affect your dog’s digestion, energy levels, and overall well-being.

🔹 How Much Water Should Your Dog Drink?
As a general rule, dogs should drink about 1 ounce of water per pound of body weight daily. So, if your dog weighs 50 pounds, they should be drinking around 50 ounces of water a day.

🔹 Signs of Dehydration:
Be on the lookout for symptoms like:

Lethargy
Dry nose and gums
Sunken eyes
Loss of skin elasticity (gently pinch the skin; if it doesn’t bounce back quickly, your dog could be dehydrated).
🔹 Tips to Keep Your Dog Hydrated:

Always have fresh, clean water available.
Consider wet food if your dog doesn’t drink enough on their own.
In hotter weather, add ice cubes to their water bowl or offer dog-safe broths to increase fluid intake.
Keeping your dog hydrated is one of the simplest ways to ensure they stay healthy and happy!"

Meet the Labrador Retriever – A Perfect Balance of Strength and Intelligence

Let’s dive into the breed that’s beloved for being both a working dog and a family companion—the Labrador Retriever! 🐕‍🦺

🔹 Origin:
Originally bred in Newfoundland, Labs were used by fishermen to help retrieve nets and catch fish that escaped fishing lines. They became ideal hunting companions, known for their strong swimming ability and retrieving skills.

🔹 Temperament:
Labradors are incredibly friendly, intelligent, and loyal. They’re a high-energy breed, which means they thrive on physical and mental stimulation. Because of their even temperament, Labs are often chosen as service dogs, therapy dogs, and search-and-rescue K9s.

🔹 Training Needs:
Due to their intelligence and eagerness to please, training Labradors can be quite easy if you start early. They excel in obedience, agility, and even scent work! However, they require consistent training to channel their energy and prevent boredom.

🔹 Health Considerations:
Labs are generally healthy, but like all breeds, they are prone to certain conditions such as hip dysplasia and elbow dysplasia. Regular vet check-ups and a balanced diet are key to keeping them healthy and active.

Have a Lab in your life? Tell us what you love most about them!"

"Training Tip Tuesday: Want your dog to stay calm in one spot even when there’s a lot going on around them? Teaching the 'Place' command can be a game-changer for managing their behavior, both at home and in public. 🐾

🔹 What is the 'Place' Command?
It’s when your dog is trained to go to a designated spot and stay there until released. This helps your dog build impulse control, making it perfect for times when you need them to stay focused and calm, like when guests are over or during meal prep.

🔹 Training Steps:

Start by guiding your dog to a specific area (a corner, or any designated spot of your choosing) and say 'Place.'
Reward them immediately when all four paws are in the area.
Gradually increase the duration they stay in place before being rewarded.
Use a release word like 'Okay' to let them know when they can leave.
🔹 Why It's Important:
This command is fantastic for creating a calm, focused dog and helps you manage them in different situations. Whether in public places or at home, the 'Place' command gives your dog clear expectations on when to relax and stay put.

Have you tried teaching your dog 'Place'? Let us know how it's going!"

Did you know dogs thrive when given clear boundaries and consistent leadership? One key aspect of training is establishing yourself as the pack leader. Dogs are pack animals and naturally look to a leader for guidance. By setting rules and consistently following through with commands, you help your dog understand its role in the family. Practice calm, assertive energy, and remember to be patient. Leadership is about guidance, not dominance! Your dog will trust and respect you more as their leader. 🐾
