It's brewing.
Bubbling and they're trying to tell you.
Reactivity isn't always explosive.
It builds.
Yes.... it may end with barking, lunges, screeches and growls, but that is often because we may have missed those little tell tale signs.

These are only some of the more common signals dogs can give.
There are plenty more... and they can happen in the blink of an eye.

That slight lowering of the head?
Did their mouth clamp shut?
Their tail bristle right out?

They are all signs they may be struggling to cope and they need your help.

Reactivity is nuanced and highly individual....but I hope this chart may give some clarity to those little "Hmmm why did you do that ?" moments.

Noticing these is half the "battle"

Dogs are asked to cope with a lot in our world.
We don't look at how change can affect them....until it does.
We have family staying ➡️ but your dog doesn’t know that until they walk in the door.
We go on vacation ➡️ your dog has no idea they’re about to stay at a kennel or have someone new in their space.
Then we're shocked by the regression.

"It was all going so well !"
It can be the smallest of things that can undo all the progress made.
For your dog though....those "little" changes can be huge.

➡️Overnight guests

➡️Construction next door

➡️More kids visiting, esp during school holidays

➡️Taking your dog to a friend’s place

All of these are ordinary to us..... and may be overwhelming to them.

Dogs won’t tell you they’re dehydrated—but their body will. 💧
Know what to look for when the heat kicks in.

🎶We're having a heat wave! 🎶 When temperatures are soaring, so are the dangers of overheating for our dogs. In some cases, extreme heat can be life-threatening. ⚠️

High temperatures can affect ALL dogs but be especially mindful of those with underlying health conditions and seniors.

Anatomical studies comparing dogs and wolves have revealed key differences in their facial musculature. Domestic dogs possess a well-developed levator anguli oculi medialis muscle, which enables them to raise their inner eyebrows. This movement gives the eyes a larger, more expressive appearance—often interpreted by humans as sadness or longing. In wolves, this muscle is either missing or significantly less developed, suggesting it played no major role in wild canine behavior.

Researchers believe this trait evolved over thousands of years of domestication, as dogs that could better elicit nurturing responses from humans were more likely to receive care and resources. This selective pressure may have gradually shaped their facial expressions to better align with human emotional cues.

The ability to manipulate facial expressions in a way that mimics human emotions helps dogs form stronger bonds with people. These subtle movements enhance communication and make dogs particularly skilled at integrating into human social environments. 🐶👀

A new initiative called “Resting Reef” provides an eco-conscious way to honor loved ones by using their cremation ashes to create artificial reefs. Made from marine-safe concrete infused with ash, these reef structures are placed on the ocean floor to encourage coral growth and support marine biodiversity.

This innovative approach not only creates a lasting memorial but also contributes to marine conservation by supplying habitat for fish, corals, and other sea life.

The project taps into growing environmental awareness around traditional burial methods, which can consume land and release greenhouse gases. By transforming ashes into reef-building materials, Resting Reef merges legacy with sustainability—leaving behind not only memories but also vibrant ecosystems.

As artificial reefs continue to gain popularity, memorial reefs like these blend personal commemoration with a positive ecological impact, turning remembrance into restoration.

Across Florida, we have seen horrifying instances of animal cruelty that demand a stronger response. To impose harsher consequences for criminals who harm dogs or other innocent animals, today I signed:

• Trooper’s Law, inspired by the dog that was left chained up in the path of Hurricane Milton and rescued by FHP last year. Leaving a dog to suffer alone in a storm is inhumane, and this legislation makes it a felony in Florida.

• Dexter’s Law, named after a shelter dog that was brutally killed in Pinellas County days after being adopted. This new legislation strengthens penalties for aggravated animal cruelty, ensuring that offenders will be held accountable.
