Did you know:

If you have a pacemaker, you can put it in your Will to have your pacemaker donated to a dog in need after you pass. Pacemakers cannot be donated to another human, but they can be donated to dogs with cardiac issues who would depend on it to stay alive.

You can have the pacemaker brought to a vet of your choice. So many of those get thrown away and dogs die because people don't know they can do this. It even saves the dog's owner the cost of the actual pacemaker which sometimes means the difference in being able to afford lifesaving treatment or not.

LOOKING FOR FOSTERS FOR AMAR IN ILLINOIS AND WISCONSIN!!
AMAR has been in touch with a shelter manager near Rockford, IL who has taken in 49 intact (unspayed/unneutered) small dogs who are believed to be Maltese and Maltese/Yorkie mixes. They were dumped at an unenclosed dog park right near a busy road and Animal Control had to stop traffic to round them up. It's believed they're from a puppy mill or backyard breeder. They will need medical attention. We can't help them without fosters and we don't have any fosters in IL or WI. Here is your chance to help a dog, or several, in need by fostering for us so we can help. Please fill out this online form so we can see if we can come to their aid: https://www.americanmalteserescue.org/foster

Click on the picture to read her full comment. I’m in a group on Facebook regarding these topical and oral flea medications. I see these stories ALL THE TIME, especially regarding Simparica Trio. This is why it’s in my contracts that it will void the health guarantee. Do not, do not, do not give this poison to your pets. These meds will GIVE your pets seizures, not just unsafe for pets that have seizures. Most of these dogs never recover fully if they survive it.

We typically feed Steve’s Real Food to our pups. We’ve had them on this for the last 6 years. Let’s face it, on a single income family of a blue collar worker that gets expensive when you’re a breeder. So we began hatching and raising quail about 5 months ago (limited by an HOA). We chose quail for many reasons but mostly because we’re limited by an HOA to keeping any livestock. Quail are not considered livestock (they’re game birds) and they’re easy and quiet. Plus quail do not carry salmonella in their digestive tract like chickens do making it safe to eat their eggs raw and handling them is less risky.
We’re processing and making our first batches of raw for the dogs (and cats). Here’s the recipe that I’m following (well ingredients list). This is for a 10 lb dog daily serving.

1 quail (bones and organs)
1 tbsp broccoli (blanched)
1 tbsp carrots (blanched)
1/8 tsp sea meal
1/10 scoop green lipped mussels
1/4 tsp salmon oil
1/8 tsp taurine
1/4 tsp chia seeds
1/8 tsp inulin prebiotic (chicory root)
1/8 tsp sesame seeds
1 tsp flaxseed
1 quail egg
2 oz goat milk

#4 in Country Living article as best lap dogs to snuggle!

According to Dr. Dockweiler, Maltese are "confident and friendly toy dogs, well suited to being lap dogs," as long as they get a daily, short burst of exercise. "Due to their intelligence and tendency to bark at strangers and other dogs, they can also make good watchdogs," she adds.

Nearly as pint-sized as a chihuahua, Maltese typically weigh between 4 and 7 pounds. Lore has it that the breed's roots go back to the ancient Phoenicians, who brought the dog to the small island south of Sicily for which it's named. Maltese are people-pleasers, taking well to training, and are also agile, making them a good fit for dog sports (when they're not curled up on their humans).

Baby Lyric, all 3-1/2 lbs of her. She looks just like her mum, Ruby ♥️🥰🐾 I hate when they’re full of hormones and they have tear stains. Hopefully once she’s had her first litter it will go away again like with my other girls. If she can go another 2-1/2 months without going into heat again then I’ll let her breed her next heat. Otherwise it will be on her 3rd heat.
