Today, we celebrate the wonderful mixed-breed dogs who bring so much joy and love into our lives. Let’s give a shoutout to all the mutts out there, each one as unique and special as can be!

You've asked, we've responded! Here our latest top pet-related question:

Q: Why is my dog scratching so much lately?

A: Your dog could be scratching due to fleas, allergies, or dry skin. Check for fleas first. If you don’t find any, consider if there’s been a recent change in diet or environment that could cause allergies. Using a soothing oatmeal-based shampoo can help with dry skin. If the scratching continues, give us a call for a thorough check-up. 🐶 ✨
