Prairie Dog Page

A page to help prairie dogs in the wild and in captivity. If you are an owner looking for medical or behavioral advice, please pm the page, do not post.

I created this page because of my love for prairie dogs and my passion to work with other like-minded people to help them have the best life possible with the people entrusted to care for them. If you come here asking for advice regarding a critical health or behavioral issue, general prairie dog care, or for help with re-homing or adopting prairie dogs, and you don’t follow up or become proactive

in the care of this animal, (i.e. not responding to private messages or making necessary phone calls but instead keep commenting on a thread which may be misinterpreted) I will delete your post. I will no longer allow advice of such a serious nature to be given in the comments section of a thread as these unique and often misunderstood animals require special needs that must be addressed by a professional. Prairie dogs are individuals and each one is unique. The special requirements for the care of this animal, combined with the individual living dynamics of each household, make it impossible to give the advice needed via emails, Facebook posts or text messages. Passive aggressive manipulation to get a professional to respond blindly to only fragmented information instead of receiving a FREE telephone consultation for proper assistance won't be tolerated and such posts will be removed. It is the goal of this group to provide the individualized assistance this species requires by referring requests for help with this animal to a professional who will provide a FREE telephone consultation! Members who CONSISTENTLY ask for help but don’t follow up or become proactive in caring for these animals and continue to put their own agendas before the needs of the prairie dogs don’t deserve to have them and will be removed from the group. There is no room for egos here. It is all about the prairie dogs!

PLEASE READ ENTIRE POST CAREFULLY especially regarding picture submission and payment methods.
After taking a 2-year break, I decided to begin working on 2026 prairie dog calendars now. Before you know it, the holidays will be upon us! To submit your pictures, please send an email to [email protected]. Pictures not sent to this email will not be considered. The cost for each calendar is $20.00 plus postage. Postage will be determined by how many calendars you want and your location. For one calendar, it'll be $5. To order a calendar, please submit an initial $25.00 payment per calendar. If you are ordering from outside the USA, then postage will be determined on a case-by-case basis and you will be emailed with the amount of the postage once I have your shipping information. Payment can be made through the following methods.

Venmo -Natalino

PayPal - or use the email [email protected].

Cash App $prairiedogtales

or you can mail a check to Michele Natalino, 2001 58th Street, Lubbock, TX 79412.

Since I usually just break even or end up paying out of pocket, I am not doing this to raise money for any rescue or relocation projects. This is simply to offer prairie dog owners something special to honor their love for prairie dogs.

Picture submissions must be completed by October 31st. I will begin designing the calendar in the first week of November and placing the order at that time to insure delivery by the new year.

I look forward to seeing everyone's pictures.

*Disclaimer - if I do not get enough orders for the minimum number to purchase the calendars at the $20 price, then the price may increase. I will not know that until the time of ordering and it will be dependent on the number of orders I have. The more orders I have, the cheaper the prices are for each calendar. For instance, if I order 50 - 100 calendars, the price per calendar drops to $18 per calendar. I have not ordered that many in several years which is why I have only broke even or even had to pay out of pocket for postage.

Thank you.

It is that time of year again, Active Relocation Season!

This year we have lost some of our prized field helpers that are trained in handling wildlife and relocation techniques. Because of this, we will be looking for more volunteers and if you have past training & experience and would be available to help during the week, we may have contract labor positions open.

This is a great opportunity to help our native wildlife in desperate need. All too often we are unable to help these animals.

Just this week I was contacted about another "justified" poisoning that took place in a local neighborhood. The people who ordered it have been telling the public that they hired a "relocator," that they would never kill a prairie dog. Well, what they did was hire one exterminator and then another exterminator to "relocate" dead animals to the ferret program as food for ferrets. We want everyone to know that this is not humane live relocation. It seems lying to the public is accepted in today's world.

This is the truth - A true humane relocation involves a live animal all the way through the process and is released back onto the prairie to live out their lives and serve the ecosystem fully. This is the only kind of relocation that Prairie Dog Action performs.

We have had a tough week and it isn't over yet, but if you are interested in helping with relocation efforts in the following areas, Lafayette, Thornton, Parker, Kiowa, Pueblo and Castle Rock to start with, let me know. At least we can help some of these animals in need during the next three months.
