The puppies are 7 weeks old today. They are eating more, pooping more, have more energy, playing longer with each other. It’s fun to watch how they develop. I’m trying not to let them decimate my plants! It’s a challenge. If you’re ready for a golden retriever I’ve got 3 boys and a girl available.

Now that is what I call a huddle of love! They’re ready to go home in 3 weeks! Contact me if you want one of my sweet puppies.

🐾🌟 Today is National Animal Disaster Preparedness Day! 🌟🐾

At Trails and Tails Pet Sitting, we understand the importance of keeping our furry friends safe during emergencies. From natural disasters to unforeseen emergencies, it's crucial to have a plan in place to ensure the well-being of our pets.

Here are some tips to help you and your pet stay prepared:

Create a Pet Emergency Kit: Pack essential supplies such as food, water, medication, and copies of medical records in a waterproof container. Don't forget to include your pet's favorite toys and comfort items.

Identify Safe Spaces: Identify safe areas in your home or neighborhood where you can take shelter with your pet during emergencies. Practice evacuating to these locations with your pet to familiarize them with the process.

Stay Informed: Keep up-to-date on local weather alerts and emergency notifications. Sign up for alerts from your city or county's emergency management agency to stay informed about potential threats in your area.

Prepare for Evacuation: Have a plan in place for evacuating with your pet if necessary. Identify pet-friendly shelters or hotels along your evacuation route and make arrangements in advance.

Microchip and ID: Ensure your pet has a microchip with up-to-date contact information and wear a collar with identification tags. In the event you become separated from your pet, these measures can help reunite you quickly.

Remember, being prepared is the best way to protect your pet in times of crisis. At Trails and Tails Pet Sitting, we're committed to helping pet owners keep their furry family members safe and secure. Contact us today to learn more about our pet sitting services and how we can assist you in creating a disaster preparedness plan tailored to your pet's needs. 🐾❤️

Today, on World Spay Day, we at Trails and Tails Pet Sitting join the global effort to promote responsible pet ownership through spaying and neutering.

Spaying and neutering your pet isn't just about controlling the animal population; it has numerous benefits for their health and well-being, including:

📌Reduced risk of certain cancers and infections
📌Improved behavior and decreased aggression
📌Longer lifespan

Creating a safer community by controlling pet overpopulation
By making the responsible choice to spay or neuter your pet, you're not only giving them a healthier, happier life, but you're also helping to prevent needless pet homelessness and euthanasia.

Trails and Tails is dedicated to supporting responsible pet ownership, and we commend everyone who makes the decision to spay or neuter their beloved companions.

Chain Free the Love:

This week, we raise our voices for thousands of dogs suffering through a life on chains. Imagine being confined to a small space, exposed to weather extremes, and lacking basic social interaction. It's a lonely, miserable existence.

This , let's:

Educate: Share facts & resources about the harmful effects of chaining.
Donate: Support organizations rescuing & rehabilitating chained dogs.
Advocate: Urge local authorities to implement anti-chaining laws.
Adopt: Consider giving a deserving chained dog a loving forever home. ❤️

Even small actions can make a big difference! Together, we can break the chains and create a better life for these deserving dogs.

Off to Florida tomorrow to visit family and friends. It’s going to be at least 30 degrees warmer there than AZ. This is the coldest winter that I can remember. I’m hoping to see a beach and the ocean before I leave.

Good News! We found the owner of the beagle. His name is Bentley! He was microchipped! Thank Goodness. Microchipping is essential to owning a pet. It doesn't cost much and it will save you the anxiety and grief of losing a pet. Chip your pets! Cats, dogs, rabbits, etc. They can be chipped.

Bentley is going to have a Merry Christmas!!!

You know what the United States and obviously the “progressives” calling for a return of water, electricity etc for Gaza is that this is not Israel’s first rodeo with Hamas, Isis, and any other terrorist groups trying to eliminate the Israelis. They have been fighting this fight for over 5000 years. Who are the US progressives that even have a say in how this country defends itself? They are an ally. This administration betrayed them by allowing a nuclear trade agreement with Iran. The Iranian government supports the irradiation of Jews. Sending billions of dollars to Iran so that they can fund Hamas and Isis is a black mark on our country. Yeah, Joe Biden needs to go. Joe Biden needs to be impeached. The AG’s office needs to stop dragging it’s feet on the Hunter Biden case. 3 years we’ve been listening to the “laptop” crap. And, as aside, inflation is killing me and my business. 70.00 for a bag of dog food! That’s up almost 50% in the last 3 years. Never mind food for us. Yeah, Biden and his administration have put this country at risk and has increased the cost of living far beyond the miserly 3.2% COLA. There are 55 million people in the US that are 65 and older. That is not a small voice. And, amongst those 55 million are Jews who have supported Israel and hopefully see that your Democrats are not supporting you. Just saying!!! ✡️🇺🇸

Today is ! We're celebrating cats across the world and honoring their charming personalities.

Cats are beloved companions for people of all ages. They are loving, playful, and independent creatures that bring us joy and laughter. Cats also play an important role in our ecosystems by controlling populations of pests.
