With heat waves sweeping across the country, blue-green algae is appearing in new areas and posing an increased risk to pets.

Found in lakes, ponds or any source of standing water, it’s extremely toxic and consuming it can be fatal. The best way to prevent accidental poisoning is to keep a close eye on pets when they’re around water.

If you think your pet has been exposed, take them to the nearest emergency veterinary hospital and contact the ASPCA Poison Control at 888-426-4435.

Meet Little Bear, a 10-year-old Shepherd/Chow Chow mix with a young spirit and a heart full of love. Weighing 47 pounds, Little Bear may be a senior, but his playful, curious nature makes him feel like a puppy at heart. His medium golden coat is as warm as his personality, complemented by his dark, expressive eyes and fluffy tail that wags with joy.

Little Bear has the sweetest face you’ll ever see, and his affectionate nature makes him an ideal companion. He loves being around people and would thrive in a home with a stay-at-home person who can shower him with the attention he craves. Although a bit anxious, his loving personality shines through, making him a true cuddle bug who enjoys quiet moments of companionship.

This charming senior prefers to be the only dog in the household, where he can be the center of your world. Little Bear enjoys slow walks where he can take his time exploring and savoring the sights and smells of the outdoors. His gentle pace is perfect for leisurely strolls and spending quality time together.

Little Bear’s ideal home is one filled with love, patience, and plenty of cuddles. If you’re looking for a loyal and affectionate companion to share your days with, Little Bear is ready to bring warmth and joy into your life. Open your heart to Little Bear, and experience the unconditional love that only he can offer.

Like all pets from the SPCA of Texas, Little Bear has been neutered, microchipped and is up to date on all his necessary vaccinations. He is housed at the Dallas Animal Care Center (2400 Lone Star Drive, 75212), so come by any day between Noon and 6 p.m. to meet him.

Animals are available for adoption at both the SPCA Dallas Animal Care Center and the Ellis County Animal Care Center (2570 FM Road 878 in Waxahachie, Texas).

Fetch A Friend for free during June at the SPCA of Texas! All adult cat and dog adoptions are free and puppy adoptions are half price. This adoption special is available at both the Dallas and Ellis County Animal Care Centers.
