Our shoes do such a good job protecting us, that we are not aware how hot the ground is. Please keep the numbers below in mind. And remember, when the temperature drops at night, it takes a little time before the pavement cools off. Be safe! Have fun! Please share!

My little Chase passed away yesterday 😔
https://www.HopeForPaws.org/blog/Chase
Her rescue video (in the link above) was filmed 13 years ago, and it will always be such an important video because it shows how a little bit of patience and lots of love can make a huge difference.

I am so happy that thanks to your support, I was able to be a part of her journey in life ❤️

Rest in peace my little girl 😢

Did you know a walk can make a dog very happy? They love to check out the sights and smells and will really look forward to spending time outside. A dog that doesn't receive sufficient exercise can easily become bored or destructive. Don't forget to schedule regular walks with us this spring!

Thank you Neal Bascomb for sharing this! I am delighted to be carrying on her legacy:-)

Meet New York’s First Known Dog Walker. “Coming up Fifth Avenue last Friday morning was a pretty, trim-looking girl, who attracted the rather admiring attention of passers-by from the enjoyment she seemed to take in what was apparently a morning constitutional. It was a thoroughly uncomfortable day. A constant drizzle was falling, half rain and half sleet…She wore a trim little gray suit, with the skirt at ankle length. She had no umbrella and she walked freely and easily, her cheeks rosy with exercise and her hands free, except as she held a leash at the other end of which was a handsome Irish setter dog.

“The girl was apparently having more fun out of the walk than the dog. That was not surprising for what respectable and self-respecting hunting dog would like to be obliged to trot along Fifth Avenue. So the dog looked despondent and the girl happy for it was a matter of business with her, and she was being paid for it.”

According to The NY Times article in January 1899, an elderly lady of some wealth had gone to the Women’s Exchange to ask if anyone could be employed to “exercise my dog for me.” The unnamed girl answered the posting, making the tidy sum of $10 a month for an hour walk of the Irish Setter a day.

“Now the young woman’s mornings are all engaged wandering up and down Fifth Avenue exercising society pets… It is a good thing for the young woman. It is a blessing for the dogs, as it is the best thing they can get inside the city limits, and it is with great satisfaction to the fond owners of the dogs. So there is a new profession, and at least one woman is helping to support herself by means of it.”

We all hate leaving our pets behind when heading out of town, but one way to make sure they’re as comfortable as possible is to provide them care in their familiar environment.

help lower blood pressure. Wagging tails, blissful purring, big smiles and soulful eyes prove our
pets are happy to be a part of the household. How does your pet show you their love?
