Effective immediately all vacation visits must be prepaid at least 24 hours in advance unless you're paying by cash. If you're paying by check please discuss it with me first. Service will no longer be started without payment first. I'm sorry that I have had to make this decision.

This post is for my actual clients. I am making a policy change effective today. There will be a cancelation fee for any canine vacation visits that are canceled less than a month in advance unless someone in your immediate family has died. I hate to do this but I set aside my time for you and possibly tell others that I can't help them and then I lose twice. I count on that money to pay my bills and I know I shouldn't count money before it's earned but you count on me so I feel it's fair for me to count on you. I will also be sending this message to everyone via text.

Please just don't
Every year the rawhides come out and people who don't understand, buy them for their beloved dogs.
Just don't.

We strive to provide the best for our furry friends, but sometimes what seems like a harmless treat can hide potential dangers. There have been documented cases of dogs with pieces of rawhide lodged in their windpipe, stomach, or intestines, creating choking hazards and an intestinal blockage, gastrointestinal distress, such as vomiting or diarrhea, can occur if rawhide irritates the digestive tract . Since rawhide is a byproduct of leather, some items pose a significant challenge to a dog’s digestive system when it comes to breaking down.

During the manufacturing process, rawhide is often soaked in a cocktail of chemicals to preserve it and enhance its flavor. These chemicals can include formaldehyde or chromium salts, hydrogen peroxide and bleach, which may pose risks to adult dogs and young puppies alike.

Safer alternatives like completely digestible Himalayan yak chews, dehydrated sweet potato chews, or any of the all meat jerky treats would be much better than rawhide.
