Want some animal filled fun this summer? ☀️

We're offering 3 summer camp sessions at our Hawthorn Mall location! We are welcoming kids ages 5-12 and parents are welcome as well.

No only is this a fun time for children, but a learning experience as well!
This is a great learning opportunity on how to appropriately interact with animals, different types of animals, and how to care for them!

Has a coyote ever “followed” you or your dog while you’re walking in your neighborhood or in the park? If so, you may have felt afraid, perhaps thought the coyote was stalking you, or that an attack was imminent. But don’t fear. Coyotes are naturally curious animals, and often engage in this behavior called “escorting”. Escorting is when a coyote, sometimes with its mate, makes sure that you are leaving its territory. This behavior is most often seen from early March to late April, when coyote parents are protecting their precious puppies. Escorting most often happens in early morning or in the evening, and because they may see dogs as a threat to their babies, it’s most often seen by dog walkers.

What do you do if you’re “escorted” by a coyote? Don’t panic; the coyote is much more terrified of you! If you don’t have your dog leashed - which you should in coyote country- immediately leash it and keep it by your side. Calmly keep walking, slowly, as normally. Soon enough, you’ll be out of the coyote’s home and he will stop escorting you! On the off chance the escorting coyote starts to approach too closely, shout and wave your hands to frighten it away. As we humans develop more and more woodlands, coyote coexistence has become even more essential; we simply must learn to speak their language.

This is true in Illinois as well. Please watch your dogs when they are outside. Coyotes will hunt in the daytime as well at night, often in packs and can scale fences as high as 6' tall.

We still have some openings during the holidays for drop-in pet-sitting in the safety of your home. Areas of Northbrook only.

With a mysterious dog respiratory illness spreading during holidays, many have been left wondering if they should board their pets when they travel.
