We would like to wish a Happy Veterans Day to all who have served!

Many of our service members return to civilian life with scars, both seen and unseen. The same is true for many of our shelter pets. When a Veteran adopts a shelter pet, both parties develop a new purpose in life that may have been previously lost. They become family. They learn that they can depend on one another for unconditional love, emotional support, and piece of mind.

If you are a Veteran in need of a little companionship, there is no better time to adopt than now. As a small token of our gratitude for your service, we are offering 50% off all adoption fees for Veterans throughout the entire month of November!

You can see our adoptable pets anytime on our website, or come in today during our open hours to adopt your new best friend!

Here's a quick guide to prep your pup for a hurricane:🐾

1. Create an emergency kit: Put together a kit with essential supplies for your dogs, including food, water, medications, and any necessary documents. Don't forget to include their favorite toys or blankets for comfort.

2. Secure your home: Make sure your home is properly secured to withstand the storm. Check windows, doors, and any outdoor structures to ensure they can withstand strong winds. Create a safe space indoors where your dogs can take shelter.

3. ID and microchip your dogs: Ensure your dogs have proper identification, such as a collar with updated tags or a microchip. This will help reunite you with them if they get lost during the chaos of the hurricane.

4. Plan for evacuation: If you need to evacuate, have a plan in place for your dogs. Identify pet-friendly shelters or hotels in advance. Keep a list of nearby friends or family members who can accommodate your dogs if needed.

5. Pack a travel kit: If you need to evacuate with your dogs, pack a separate travel kit for them. Include their essentials like food, water, bowls, leash, and any necessary medications.

6. Comfort and calm: During the hurricane, keep your dogs calm and comforted. Provide a safe and quiet space for them to retreat to, away from windows and potential hazards. Consider using calming aids like blankets or pheromone diffusers to help reduce anxiety.

Remember, your dogs' safety is a top priority during a hurricane. Stay informed about any evacuation orders or emergency updates in your area and follow the guidance of local authorities. Stay safe!

Stay safe! 😊

Here’s Aspen’s Training Academy LLC Breed of The Day🥰🗣️

THE SIBERIAN HUSKY ❤️

Siberian Huskies are beautiful and captivating dogs that have captured the hearts of many. With their striking blue or multicolored eyes and thick, luxurious coats, they are truly a sight to behold. Originally bred by the Chukchi people of Siberia, these dogs were used for sledding and transportation in the harsh Arctic conditions.

Siberian Huskies are known for their friendly and outgoing nature. They are generally good-natured and get along well with people of all ages, including children. However, they do have a strong prey drive, so it's important to be cautious around small animals. These dogs are also highly intelligent and independent, which can sometimes make training a bit challenging. Consistent and patient training methods are key to ensuring they become well-behaved family members.

In terms of exercise, Siberian Huskies are high-energy dogs that require plenty of physical activity to stay happy and healthy. They excel in activities like running, hiking, and even participating in dog sports such as agility or sledding. Their thick coats also require regular brushing to prevent matting and keep them looking their best.

Overall, Siberian Huskies are a wonderful breed for those who lead an active lifestyle and have the time and dedication to provide them with the exercise and mental stimulation they need. They are loyal, affectionate, and make great companions for the right owner.

TODAYS DOG OF THE DAY: THE SOUTH AFRICAN MASTIFF BETTER KNOWN AS THE BOERBOEL😮‍💨✨🐾( My favorite breed)‼️
The Boerboel is a South African breed of large dog of mastiff type, used as a family guard dog. It is large, with a short coat, strong bone structure and well-developed muscles. The Boerboel descends from an old colonial cross-breed of mastiffs and bulldogs used both as a guard dog on remote farms and estates and for big game hunting, and known as the Boer Dog or Boer Hunting Dog. An account from 1909 describes this cross-breed as the best dog for hunting leopards and baboons in packs; a leopard with a leg caught in a trap can be killed by a pack of them. My rating of this breed from research alone, I give a solid 8/10.
