Keeping your pets safe on Halloween is super important! Here are some tips for pet owners:

1. **Keep Candy Out of Reach**: Chocolate, candy wrappers, and certain sweeteners (like xylitol) can be toxic to pets. Make sure all treats are stored safely.

2. **Create a Safe Space**: With all the doorbell ringing and visitors, set up a quiet, secure area for your pets to relax away from the chaos.

3. **Be Cautious with Costumes**: If dressing up your pet, ensure the costume is comfortable and doesn’t restrict their movement or vision. Always supervise them while they’re in costume.

4. **Watch Out for Decorations**: Keep decorations like candles, pumpkins, and glow sticks away from pets. They can be hazardous if chewed or knocked over.

5. **Secure Your Pet**: During trick-or-treat hours, keep pets indoors to prevent them from escaping. A loud noise or unexpected visitor could startle them.

6. **ID and Microchip**: Ensure your pets have up-to-date identification tags and consider microchipping them for extra security in case they get lost.

7. **Be Mindful of Halloween Plants**: Some decorations, like certain types of pumpkins and corn, can be harmful if ingested. Keep them out of reach.

8. **Monitor Treats**: If you’re giving your pet a special Halloween treat, ensure it’s safe for them and avoid giving them too much.

By taking these precautions, you can help ensure your pets have a safe and enjoyable Halloween! 🐾🎃

🌟🐾 Why Spaying and Neutering Your Pets Matters! 🐾🌟

Hey, pet lovers! 🐶🐱 Did you know that spaying and neutering your pets has countless benefits for both them and the community? Here are just a few reasons to consider:

1. Healthier Pets: Spaying and neutering can reduce the risk of certain cancers and other health issues, leading to longer, healthier lives for our furry friends!

2. Behavioral Benefits: Altered pets often display improved behavior—less aggression, reduced roaming, and decreased marking tendencies. It helps keep our homes and neighborhoods peaceful!

3. Preventing Overpopulation: Millions of animals end up in shelters every year. By spaying and neutering, we can help reduce the number of unwanted litters and ensure more pets find loving homes.

4. Cost-Effective: The cost of spaying or neutering is much lower than the expenses associated with caring for a litter of puppies or kittens. It’s a smart financial choice for pet owners!

5. Community Impact: Fewer stray animals mean a safer community for everyone. It helps reduce the burden on shelters and rescues, allowing them to focus on finding homes for those in need.

Let’s work together to promote responsible pet ownership! If you have questions about spaying or neutering, reach out to your local vet or shelter. 🏥💖

Good evening everyone! We just got our computers up and running yesterday so I apologize for not posting very much. We have been cleaning out our Woodlawn office, salvaging what we could and throwing mud drenched stuff away. It has been a very busy week for us and we are trying to get organized and settled in our other location on Park Street.

Who would have thought last Friday morning when we started our day as usual it would have ended in disaster? We want everyone affected by Hurricane Helene to know we are praying for you, your families, and your pets! We also want you to know, we give our sincere condolences to the families that have lost family members, pets, and their homes.

We want to thank everyone that has donated dog food, cat food, water, food for our team, and supplies. There are so many different animal welfare groups, businesses and citizens that have helped us I can't name each one individually! We are truly blessed and humbled by the outpouring of help we have received this past week!

Hi I am Bert! I am a male Pitt-x and I weight 74lbs. I may be big and intimidating but in reality I'm just a big baby! I'm very out going with people and seem to do good with kids. I would probably do best in a single pet home though and could use some more leash training.
