Barney is a dog a lot of people may think should be named Lucky. He was found as a stray and taken to the local animal control shelter. A very nice couple had years ago adopted a dog from animal control and he loved a wonder life. Their house was empty, so they went back and found Barney. When Barney arrived at their house, he and the cat did not get along, he was having trouble pottying where three couple wanted he to go, he jumps on visitors, and didn’t know how to walk on a leash. The couple gave Barney time, patience, and scheduled an in-home lesson to make sure they were helping Barney as much as possible. Look at him enjoying bird and critter watching out the back door with his new buddy Jemima the cat. Enjoy your new life, Barney!

The 4th of July is almost upon us and I’m sure there will be lots of celebrations over several days (there is a good chance people may already be celebrating near you). Start planning now. More dogs end up lost during this time than any another time. Does your dog have VISIBLE ID tags. It is much easier for someone to give you a call if they find your lost dog than to try to get them somewhere that can read a microchip. Do you have an updated picture of your dog, just in case? Have you made a plan to keep your dog comfortable during all the noise? Have you talked to your vet to see if they may be able to offer your dog additional support? Start thinking and planning now so you and your dog can have an enjoyable 4th of July!

Remy’s mom had not had a puppy in a long time, so she scheduled an in-home lesson to make sure she was on the right track with housetraining, teaching Remy appropriate things to chew on, and making sure Remy is comfortable being home alone. This tiny puppy and his mom were great students!

I received this email from Hashbrown and his mom this week. These messages make my day! I’m always so happy when a dog’s good behavior is noticed. Skylar did a wonderful job following through on Hashbrown’s training which will make Hashbrown a happier and more included member of the family.

What is on your dog’s summer bucket list? Let us know in the comments below!

Katie and Clover have asked to go swimming in the lake, play in their little pool, go on a road trip, go swimming in the ocean, and sleep late in the morning (Oh, sorry! That’s on Judy’s bucket list!).

06/12/2024

Clover had learned to “take it” with larger items (rope toys, stuffed toys, etc.) where she had more to grab onto and it wasn’t a problem if she held it tightly in her mouth. She has been learning to hold things more gently and to pick up smaller objects. She did great with the mechanical pencil we used today!

Such a great message to get from Cash and Enzo’s mom!

Great information!

Great information!

Can you hear them?? The cicadas are here!
From your pets’ perspective: Crunchy, delicious, satisfying, noisy and great to play with!
What you need to know:
• They are not poisonous.
• They are high in protein and fat. The high fat can be problematic for pets that have had pancreatitis or are prone to pancreatitis (shout out to all owners of Miniature Schnauzers Yorkshire Terriers, Cocker Spaniels, Dachshunds, Poodles, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Collies, and Boxers). Just because your pet is not one of those predisposed breeds does not mean they won’t get pancreatitis.
• Eating cicadas can cause:
o Constipation, intestinal obstruction and vomiting because the crunchy shell is not well digested.
o Diarrhea, vomiting, lethargy, decreased appetite, painful abdomen from the high fat content- these are signs of pancreatitis.
What to do?
• If your dog has or is predisposed to pancreatitis keep them on a leash and or confine them to an area that has few or no cicadas (you may need to rake an area of the yard).
• If your dog (or cat) has eaten a lot of cicadas and is acting normally, eating and drinking ok- don’t worry.
• If they are not acting normally after eating cicadas and are unable to p**p (but are not vomiting) you can try to give them some pumpkin or pick up some high fiber food.
• If they are not acting normal for more than 12 hours (not eating, or drinking, painful) please call and make an appointment.

Cash, a golden retriever, and Enzo, a lab mix, are such great dogs! During their in-home lessons, they have been learning so many things, such as greeting visitors calmly (instead of jumping on them), relaxing in their kennels, playing fetch to burn some energy, and walking nicely on a leash.

Congratulations to our most recent Puppy Preschool class graduates!
