This sweetie was lost, hungry, dirty, and full of burrs. Luckily, he wandered over to one of our plants and found himself at MidWest Homes for Pets! He got a bath and brush, a nice meal, a long nap, oodles of snuggles and love, and before the end of the day, a nice, cozy, and loving home. Little guy made our day! 🥰

Crate too big? Crate too small? Here’s how to get it just right.

Choosing the perfect size crate isn’t just about comfort—it’s about safety, training success, and giving your dog a space they actually want to be in.

➡️ Too small? It’s cramped and uncomfortable.
➡️ Too big? Your dog may treat it like a bathroom.
➡️ Just right? It’s their cozy den, where calm happens.

In our latest blog, we break down exactly how to measure your pup and pick the right crate size for their breed, age, and habits. (Spoiler: It’s easier than you think—and worth every second.)

MidWest Homes for Pets is in the path of totality for the solar eclipse!

If it's your first time witnessing a solar eclipse, it's probably your pet's first time, too. Experts agree that pets are more likely to become anxious or stressed by our strange behavior during the event than by the actual event.

As with any unfamiliar situation, the best way to prepare your pet is to provide them with safe spaces and safe boundaries whether you're watching from home or on the road.

Follow these quick and easy tips to prepare your pets, and
have a SPECTACULAR eclipse day!

In anticipation of Monday’s total solar eclipse, the big news for clients is that the eclipse likely won’t be any news at all to their pets.
