As an owner of a couple anxious dogs myself, I will share this every year.

Quick PSA: During the Fourth of July holiday, and the days leading it up to it when folks start celebrating with noisy fireworks, scores of pets run away from the sights and sounds, making the day after Independence Day the busiest of the year for animal hospitals and shelters. Please do your due diligence. And if you feel as though your pet may need medication to help them relax during firework season, now is the time to speak with your veterinarian!

Ditch the Peanut Butter! 🥜🚫

Peanut butter may be a popular treat, but it's not safe. Here are some of the toxic problems lurking in peanut butter:

AFLATOXIN: The most carcinogenic naturally-occurring substance known to man … and dog. The highest levels are found in freshly-ground rather than processed peanut butter.

HARMFUL FATS: Hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils create trans fats … and they’ve been linked to chronic inflammation.

SUGAR: It leads to yeast, and feeds bacteria, parasites and cancer … and leads to eating more which is the stepping stone to weight gain and diabetes … for you and your dog.

XYLITOL: This artificial sweetener is used in peanut butter to cut calories … but it’s deadly to dogs.

UNBALANCED FATS: Peanut butter is high in inflammatory omega-6 fats … as much as 178 times more than omega-3s … and inflammation can lead to allergies and joint disease.

GLYPHOSATE: It’s been identified by the World Health Organization as a probable carcinogen. It’s sprayed on peanut crops before harvest and absorbed into the crop … so you can’t wash it off.

LECTINS: These anti-nutrients block absorption of vitamins, minerals, and important proteins, and interfere with digestive enzymes … robbing your dog of nutrition.

💖DOG ABOUT TOWN!💖

Thor is a lovable 8-year-old dog with a beaming gentle doggy smile! He enjoys spending time with people, whether it’s hanging out in a cool shady spot, walking park trails, or strolling along as you shop at little community fairs, all while he charms people of all ages and makes as many friends as possible. He’s equally friendly and popular at the PRC, always happy and willing to take a walk, giving you a few nuzzles of affection along the way. He is heartworm positive, which will be treated by the PRC at no cost.

During a recent staff outing, Thor went to a County Mini Fair. Thor walked around with a calm and loose posture. He met with various guests who attended the fair and also made rounds to greet different vendors. Thor was the life of the party. Thor accepted pets and enjoyed belly rubs. Thor is an outgoing dog who was social and also displayed a calm demeanor at the event. If you enjoy walks, food trucks scenes or outdoor activities- Thor would be a perfect companion.

Thor also went on a recent foster adventure tails where he went to Eureka Springs with birds chirping so it was very relaxing. There were a few other people with dogs. He was interested in the other dogs with ears perked, looking their direction, but just continued walking. After Eureka Springs, he went to Gaspar’s for lunch on the patio. He was super calm and friendly with the server and other patrons. He did not beg for food, just laid down next to us and let us enjoy our meal.

🩷Adopt me Fergi 🩷

Fergilicous came to us from Hillsborough County Pet Resource Center several months back and has faced a MULTITUDE of issues. Her dedicated foster mom took her in for many surgeries and the latest being a colorectal surgery to fix a stricture. She seems to have finally made a great recovery and is now searching for her forever home. She is the size of a large Frenchie and is as cute as they come. She needs a family who will have a ton of bulldog experience and be ready to take on anything that may ever arise in the future (hopefully nothing does). She has been spayed, vaccinated, and chipped! Fergie is roughly 3 years old, would do well as an only dog, or possibly one other very friendly dog. A meet and greet will be required with any resident dogs!

Queenie update 🥹

She ate dinner last night and is on the mend, and will be heading back to the facility where she has a foster offer. Big thank you to all that donated towards her emergency surgery. No more over breeding, no more c sections, no more stealing her day old puppies. It’s her time to be a family member and a dog ❤️.

I am so excited to share that Collin & Clara went home yesterday! ❤️ Their new family met them last weekend when they came over to meet another pair of kittens but quickly fell in love with these two and honestly, I don't blame them! Collin was such a flirt and little Clara is not shy around new people so it was hard to resist them. They also have a big kitty brother that they will eventually get to meet as well, plus their new parents are absolutely amazing. Their spay/neuter surgeries are scheduled for next week at which point their adoptions will be official official! ❤️
