Fall brings muddy trails and hidden debris that can wreak havoc on your pet's paws.

After walks, give those pads a thorough wipe-down to remove mud, small pebbles, and potentially harmful salt or de-icing chemicals. Check between the toes for any stuck leaves or burrs. The changing weather can also lead to dry, cracked pads, so apply a pet-safe moisturizer regularly. Don't forget to trim the fur between paw pads to prevent ice ball formation as temperatures drop.

Healthy, clean paws mean more tail-wagging adventures! 🍂🐾

Save this post to ensure your pet's feet are safe during the fall season!

Boost your pet's skin and coat health with the right diet! 🐾✨

🐟 Essential fatty acids like omega-3 and omega-6 are key for a shiny coat and healthy skin. Consider fish oil supplements, but always check with your vet first.

🌾 Got a pet with allergies? Food sensitivities can show up as skin issues. Work with your vet to find the right diet and manage those allergies.

PLEASE SHARE FOR NELLIE! (tinyurl.com/meetnellie)

MEET NELLIE!
Nellie is an 8-10 year old pittie who was seized for cruelty and neglect by Philly's Humane Law Enforcement team, completely emaciate. She spent some time in the shelter before she hitched a ride to City of Elderly Love and never looked back! She's now ready to lay down some roots in a low-key home with a family who can help Nellie's world remain small due to her difficult past.

Nellie has the most unique face with wrinkles galore, soulful golden eyes, and pouty lips. She also has some muscle loss in her head but now that she is at a healthy weight, it's less noticeable. Despite looking larger in photos, Nellie is a peanut! She has short little legs, a peanut head, and (now) a nice round belly. Nellie is currently living with another dog but prefers her own space where she can spread out. She tolerates him, but can get overstimulated around him easily and isn't afraid to tell him to beat it if he's being annoying. Because of this, we think she'd be happiest as an only-pet or with another lower-key dog. Nellie loves her crate and you can sometimes find her curled up in it without being prompted. Nellie takes a little time to warm up to new people and can be anxious in new settings (like an unfamiliar car ride or during a vet visit) but settles in wonderfully and will be your very best friend if you offer her a treat. She loves being petted and scratched and will bonk her head into your leg or flip over on her back to let you know she'd like some lovin'.

We really don't know anything about Nellie's past before entering the shelter its safe to say she's been through a lot. She doesn't require much - a quieter home where she isn't asked to go on tons of adventures but can get a nice stroll through the neighborhood and a comfy spot to sit in the sun would be a dream come true.

Nellie is available for foster or adoption through City of Elderly Love. She is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. Interested in meeting her? Visit cityofelderlylove.org to complete an online questionnaire or email us at [email protected]!
