🇺🇸🐾 Honoring Our Heroes 🐾🇺🇸

Today, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who have served and sacrificed for our country. Your courage and dedication inspire us every day. Thank you for your service—and for protecting the freedoms we hold dear. ❤️💙

Canine heroes to celebrate are Mercy dogs--part of history you don't usually hear about. According to Wikipedia, they served in a paramedical role in the military, most notably during World War I. They were often sent out after large battles to seek out wounded soldiers. They carried first-aid supplies that could then be used by wounded soldiers, and comforted dying soldiers who were mortally wounded.

As many as 20,000 dogs are estimated to have served as mercy dogs during World War I and World War II, and are credited with saving thousands of lives.

🌿🐱 Why Cat Grass Is Great for Indoor Cats! 🌿

Cat grass isn’t just a fun treat—it’s full of benefits! It helps with digestion, provides safe chewing enrichment, and can even reduce hairballs. Plus, it gives your indoor cat a taste of nature right at home. 💚

A little greenery = a happier, healthier kitty! 😺🌱

🍂🍄 Watch for Wild Mushrooms! 🍄🍂

Mushrooms are appearing in yards, parks, and trails across Michigan. While many mushrooms are harmless, some can be extremely toxic to pets. Even a small nibble can cause vomiting, liver failure, or worse. 😿🐶

👉 Keep pets safe:
🍄 Supervise outdoor time, especially after rain.
🍄 Remove mushrooms from your yard as soon as you spot them.
🍄 If you think your pet may have eaten one, call your veterinarian or an emergency clinic immediately.

Let’s keep our furry friends safe this fall! 💛🐾 Call if you need us: 989-792-4800

🐾 How Long Will My Pet Live? Let’s Talk Lifespans! 💙

Every pet’s life is a beautiful journey—but how long that journey lasts can vary based on species, breed, size, and care. 🐶🐱

✨ Dogs: Smaller breeds often live longer—sometimes 12–16 years—while larger breeds may average 8–12 years.
✨ Cats: Indoor cats can live 13–18 years (some even into their 20s!), while outdoor cats tend to have shorter lifespans.
✨ Keys to a Longer, Healthier Life: Preventive vet visits, a balanced diet, dental care, exercise, and lots of love. 💕

Regular checkups help catch issues early so your furry friend can enjoy many happy, healthy years by your side. Book your pet's next checkup: 989-792-4800

A Reading Therapy Dog does more than listen to stories—they help children build confidence, reduce anxiety, and make reading fun! 💛

To become a reading therapy dog, pups must:
✅ Be calm, gentle, and well-mannered
✅ Love people—especially kids!
✅ Complete obedience training and earn certification through an approved therapy dog organization

These special dogs bring smiles and support wherever they go, helping kids turn pages and grow their love for reading! 📖🐾

Simon and I began our joint career reading to children at the Barnes and Nobel Bookstore in Woodinville, Washington. Every Saturday morning, it was my wife’s and my practice to go to the local book store and see what new books had come in. After Simon had come to stay in our home and we found out ...
