Although our post is Nut-Themed, we would not recommend feeding your pets nuts. If you would like to give your pals pet-friendly human foods, talk to your vet about modifications you can make to incorporate special treats into their diet.

WOOF WOOF WOOF BARK ARF WOOF WOOF! 🐕
Let Them Speak!

🐕‍🦺 We researched dog body language to give you an idea of what your canine companion is probably feeling. Animals are such expressive creatures. 🐶 Here's how to know what is going on behind those puppy dog eyes!

If you encounter a distressed, anxious, or aggressive animal, respect its boundaries and keep a safe distance. If you are concerned that the animal is dangerous, please contact your local animal control.

If you are concerned about your pet's behavior, make an appointment with a trusted vet to discuss it. The best source for information is a licensed professional :)
