Sometimes you just need a little support when you have to see the doctor 🥹

Sometimes you might feel stressed out from work, or are running behind and can barely remember to feed your dog, or your family is overwhelming. Just remember that the little moments count the most. Your dog lives in the present- they aren't overthinking things. It's the little things that count. ❤️

🦮Senior Dog Safety🦮
PLEASE keep your senior and geriatric dogs on a leash at ALL TIMES ‼️ How they behaved when they were younger is not necessarily how they will behave in their older years. When they get older, their senses diminish. Dementia may set in and they will act and behave differently.
Please keep your dogs leashed at all times, especially the senior and geriatric dogs & especially at night. They are depending on you.
Please be proactive before it’s too late.
‼️

Keep an eye out! 👀

This is the time of year when the adult Asian long-horned beetle (ALB) emerges from the inner wood of maple, birch, elm, and other types of trees.

This beetle has been devastating to trees in New York and Massachusetts. In Connecticut we are carefully watching the spread. As they emerge, ALB adults leave perfectly round exit holes on the bark of a tree. You will know the hole is an indicative size for ALB if you can stick the top end of a pencil in at least an inch deep. Adults are up to 1.5 inches long with long antennae.

Suspected sightings of ALB can be reported to the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station at 203-974-8474.

Please note: There are some ALB lookalikes, including the native white-spotted sawyer beetle.
