Disappointing news but it seems to be where the quality brands like to go. The almighty $ wins again. Heads up Orijen and Acana customers.

This is one of the best responses to the grain free dog food debate I've seen. Feed your dog the best food for their needs and your budget. That's the key!

Surely you've heard of the recall on pet food this week! There was another recall on pet food for Aflatoxin. If you're like me you thought, " what the heck is that"! I have your answer. Mold! Well, here's the actual definition:

Aflatoxins are poisonous carcinogens and mutagens that are produced by certain molds (Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus) which grow in soil, decaying vegetation, hay, and grains.

There is an inexpensive test that can be done by the pet food companies on incoming ingredients to ensure they are clean.

Be better pet food! Be better.

Can anyone foster this gentle giant? It's about to get REALLY cold with the possibility of snow tonight and we hate the thought of him being stuck in that outdoor shelter. Apply on the rescue's website if you can help, or share this post please!

Hoppy Easter!!!

Boredom is becoming an issue with us humans and the doggos are feeling it as well. Let's try some activities to get everyone busy! Try this activity and post to let us know how it goes!

The Nose Knows!

Put your dog’s nose to work! I sometimes do basic nose games with the dogs at the shelter where I volunteer. It is loads of fun, and you can do this in your living room. It works best if you have a second person to hide the treats, but if not, just make sure your dog can’t see where you put them.

You need small pieces of really nice food such as chicken, cheese, or meatballs (without onion). You also need several cardboard boxes or egg boxes to spread out around the room. While you distract the dog, your friend hides a piece of food in one of the boxes. Then your dog is free to hunt for it. If she wanders away from the boxes just gently make a noise to attract her back. She will soon get the idea that she is meant to search for the food.

As she gets better at finding the food, you can make it more difficult by turning boxes on their side or using different containers. The same principle applies as for training – keep it easy enough for your dog to stay interested

Folks, it's time for an awe moment!! Look 👏 at 👏 him👏. Gunner was born to a sweet momma that was saved from a feed lot and they had no idea she was pregnant! She fought pneumonia while pregnant but this sweet boy is here and looking adorable! Head on over to Donkey Haven, give them a follow and keep an eye on Gunner as he grows.

After all this time self quarantining, we are guessing you and your dogs need a bath, so head on over. Maybe they'll even give you a two for one deal...🤣🛀🐩 (Just kidding, dogs only because there are fools out there that make us have to say these things!!)

We are opening two baths. Please maintain social distancing. We are limiting only 10 in the store. And we will be sanitizing more between baths so it might take a little longer. Thank you for your patience.
