Remembering the Dogs of 9/11

"The working dogs deployed in the wake of 9/11 were remarkable. Over 300 specially trained dogs arrived at Ground Zero, each with a critical role—whether in search and rescue, police work or providing emotional support. These dogs embodied courage, sifting through dangerous rubble, and helping to locate survivors and remains. From Bretagne, a golden retriever working her first rescue mission, to Apollo, the first canine responder on site, their dedication is a story of loyalty and service that transcends borders."

We have this policy posted in our office but I also wanted to share here. We often get comments from our clients surprised that anyone could be rude to us, it happens to us just like any other profession, sometimes more because we know how important pets are to their owners.

I encourage you to read the article "A Soul Killer," I have linked in regards to some of the issues we face in our profession. And I encourage you to BE KIND. You never know what our staff has had to deal with in a day.

It’s gonna be 🔥HOT🔥 this week. Please look over the signs of heat stroke and what to do if your pet is experiencing symptoms! When cooling pets down the goal is to cool them slowly as to not shock the system. Make sure any water placed on them is not freezing cold but just a bit cooler than room temp.

Remember that brachephalic (smush face) breeds are more prone to heat stroke and can become fatal quickly. Think bulldogs, pugs, boxers, Boston terriers!

It’s best to only exercise pets in the early mornings while it is still cooler & avoid walking pets on hot pavement, stick to grass instead!

Stay cool!

Happy Friday, our office will be open 8am to 2pm this coming Monday, June 19th. We will resume our normal business hours on Tuesday.

Just a reminder we ask that all pets entering the building be leashed or in a carrier. We know your dog may be great off leash, but there may be other animals in the building that are not comfortable with other dogs running up to them or may not be feeling well. Thank you for respecting this long-time policy.
