🥳While one Lab was jailed, on the opposing side of Labrador Retriever's world spectrum, in the state of California, in a small town of Sunol, a black Lab ran for mayor, and won! Well, the dog won a post as “honorary” mayor.

But the dog was much more popular with the voting public than any of the other candidates.🐾

However, highly intelligent dogs are not necessarily easy to own. They need constant mental stimulation. Otherwise, they get bored and might have behavioural issues. 🐾

This explains why my dogs will eat anything in sight!😅

👀On the other hand, dogs’ night vision is better than ours. Dogs can also see more around them because of their wide-set eyes. 🐶

If your dog becomes unglued when the thunder rolls, talk to your veterinarian about medications that can help ease your dog’s fears. Setting up a “safe room” away from doors and windows where your dog can curl up with his or her favorite toys may also help.

🌱Pet parents, take care—fertilizers, insecticides and herbicides keep our plants and lawns healthy and green, but their ingredients may be dangerous if your pet ingests them. Always store these products in out-of-the-way places and follow label instructions carefully.🐾

☀️As the weather warms and more time is spent outdoors, there are more opportunities for pets to make a break for freedom. Make sure your pet’s ID tags are legible and contain all your current contact information. If your pet is microchipped, call the microchip company to make sure they have your most current contact information on file.🐾

😅Has your pet been a bit of a couch potato over the winter? Then start outdoor exercise slowly and gradually build up the intensity as your pet’s muscles and endurance get stronger! 🐾

🧼Spring-cleaning even solely with products labeled “natural” doesn’t mean your pets are free from harm. Make sure that your spring cleaning products are pet-friendly, and when cleaning, keep pets secure and away until all cleaning substances are dry and out of paws' reach. 🐾
