I can’t believe it has been 14yrs since we fostered Ozzie and my 10 year old daughter Abigail drew a portrait of him. She called it her ā€œmessy artā€ It was originally black pen on a white dry erase board. I snapped a picture and later added color for my business logo.

Ozzie found a great home in San Rafael with a woman experienced in owning Tibetan Terriers. She picked him up in a new Mercedes with a snazzy crate with a lamb skin rug to lay on. I think he went from pound puppy to prince real fast šŸ˜‚šŸ©·

Does your dog or cat need a dental cleaning but either cannot not have anesthesia or your wallet can’t handle the bill?

We’ve had three very successful non-anesthesia dental clinics by Pawsitively Dental since last December. The dog’s or cat’s teeth are cleaned with a sonic cleaner getting under the gum line and removing all buildup. Dental scrpaers and plaque removal tools are also used and the teeth polished. Recie ing the same dentsl treatmetn as when under anesthesia at the vet.

I have just been thoroughly impressed and all the clients as well. I got all my personal dog’s teeth done as well and they look amazing.

Our next clinic is April 5th and cleanings are $300. Please call or text to get your spot 707-544-4838

These are photos of my clients dog’s teeth as well as one of my own. šŸ˜

As we look into the start of a brand new year, why not start with a better dog food for your pup?

Here is a great article in understanding the ingredient list on the pet food package. While The Bark Side gives two thumbs up for going raw or raw and kibble, that isn’t in everyone’s budget. So if you are a kibble family, understanding the kibble you feed is a great way to start your friend on a better health journey.

We also love dogfoodadvisor website for their ratings on dog food.

*if your dog has to be on a Rx diet, check out Farmina’s new high quality Rx food Vet-life. One of the most frustrating things about Rx food is the cheap low quality of the ingredients with the highest price tag. Now you have a choice!

Figure out how pet food industry disguises unhealthy dog food as healthy ingredients. Here are 5 ways to de-code the ingredients in your dog's food.

I asked the amazing The Tulip Girls
to create a bouquet that embodied ā€œhanging around the pool, bbq, and popsicle vibesā€. So they made me a pool out of flowers with surrounding foliage. They even had a poolside adirondack chair! They are the most creative and talented florists!

For this worried about the mystery illness in dogs this is a great article to ease your mind with facts rather than scare tactics the media is using.

A local veterinarian and UC Davis professor is telling pet owners not to panic after more cases of a mystery respiratory illness impacting dogs were detected across the United States.
