I may or may not be able to relate to this. How about you?

We all know the truth to this. When Levi allows it, I will hold his paw while I fall asleep.

Warning Signs of Heatstroke in Dogs ☀️🐕🥵

🐶❗Any dog can suffer from heatstroke, but some are at greater risk, including dogs with flat faces and short noses, seniors, puppies and those with chronic health conditions.

Taking precautions — and watching out for signs of heat stress — will ensure your dog stays safe and cool all summer long. 👍 Keep an eye out for these symptoms of overheating.

To learn how you can help prevent overheating in your dog and how to keep them cool this summer, read today’s free article on our new website: https://bit.ly/3K5MhVh

"I am so grateful that I found WiseDog Pet Care. Emily and Bill have the best communication I have experienced with pet care. I love the updates and pictures we receive during their visits. We have 3 big dogs that don't have the best mannerisms, but Emily and Bill made us feel at ease knowing they can handle them. The billing and scheduling are truly easy. I am so happy with the service we have had so far. Thank you soooo much for taking care of our babies and keeping our minds at ease knowing you're there taking care of them."

Yes. Yes. Yes.

It seems so obvious doesn't it, "Some Dogs Need Space". Why does your dog need space?

I’d like to think we do this for our clients, human and fur alike😁

21/04/2023

I hope I'm not the only one that solves problems or practices what I want to say by talking to my dogs ... or my clients' dogs. I have many many willing listeners.🥰

06/04/2023

Oh yes … starting my day with some Michael Jackson and this cutie😂

05/04/2023

I love all of this. We follow this lead of providing care that is individualized. That's half the fun, getting to know each of our furpal's personalities. And of course, they are just amazing beings.

Drumroll please ......... I have FINALLY completed the website for our new WiseDog Pet Care brand!!! More bells & whistles coming soon, but until then, please take a look when you have a chance and feel free to share.

I mean let's be fair ... do you like every person you meet?

Do you love every other human on the planet? I'm a pretty social person, but there's definitely people I don't get along with. Even the most friendly, social dog will eventually find some dogs they don’t like, just as even the most outgoing person you know doesn’t like some other humans. It’s an unrealistic expectation to think every dog “wants to say hi” or will be friends with every dog they meet. And if we think this, we’re just setting our dog and ourselves up to fail.

So important to keep in mind if you have a short-snout pup.

Everyone please keep this in mind now that our weather is heating up.

Ummm, can you say cutest blueberry-eating puppy EVER! This is Chiko, he is 4 months old, and he LOVES blueberries!

It feels really cool to build something of our very own; our own version of serving in a way that makes pet parenting a little less stressful. Can’t wait to see what the future holds.

Upcoming Event for pups and their peeps!
Just a note, while this type of event calls to the dog lover in all of us, it is not always the right environment to bring your pup. We want to share the world with our best friends, but they are not always equipped with the right social skills to do so and an event like this can be very scary or overstimulating for them, triggering unhealthy stress reactions. Just be mindful. Signs of stress are not always glaringly obvious, I'll post something on that next.

10/03/2023

Soooo, this might be a true story, but I mean we are pet sitters and we MUST take pics of ALL the furkids we encounter. Sometimes Bill and I even have competitions (that'll be fodder for another post). I have to share this though...in my defense - my Mom, who just turned 91 and is losing her memory, thoroughly enjoys when I sit down with her to share the pics of all our clients' pets and their stories. She will even connect the pup's pictures, "Oh is that the one..." Her mood is instantly brightened and her thoughts shift away from anything that is troubling her. Even doggy pics can serve up some good medicine. So I'm going to ask anyone who comes across my post to please share a pic of your furkiddo and tell us something fun about him/her.

I follow Dr. Karen Becker because she is just a wealth of information. She has a book "The Forever Dog" that I am adding to my reading list. I love to learn about new things that I can share with our clients.

Share Raw Pumpkin Seeds With Your Pet 🐱🐶

Raw, unsalted and shelled pumpkin seeds make great training treats. You can also add a sprinkle of pumpkin seeds (grind them up if you have small dogs) as toppers to your pet's meals. 👌

Learn more about the benefits of pumpkin seeds for pets in today’s free pet health article, linked in the comments.

My vet shared this today. How many of you put cucumber in your water for some flavor? I do because it is so refreshing and it encourages me to drink more water. Well, I knew cucumbers could be given to our dogs as snacks, but I hadn't thought about putting it in their water. I love learning new things!

DYK?

This is perfectly written and speaks so much truth. Just like humans they are shaped by their environment.

"𝘋𝘰𝘨𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘥𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘯, 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘸𝘦'𝘷𝘦 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮, 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘯𝘷𝘪𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘸𝘦'𝘷𝘦 𝘱𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘪𝘯" Susan Garrett

The next time your dog does something you find challenging or embarrassing or which makes you feel frustrated or even angry, take a breath and remember this statement.

They aren't being 'bad' or stubborn or manipulative. They're not blowing you off or being a jerk. It's not a deliberate act designed to wind you up on their part.

Their behaviour is what it always is. A reflection of their learning and their environment. If they are doing something we don't want it's either because we haven't taught them what we do want well enough or because they just can't (not won't) do it under the current conditions. And both of those things are on us, not the dog.

They're doing the best they can with the cards we've dealt them. If we want them to do better then it's only fair that we need to do better, too.

Since I posted the video of Josie eating a banana, I wanted to share other fruits that our pups (and kitties) can eat for treats. This post is from a group I follow. I can’t wait to try some of these. Not going to lie, it helps me too. Because I know my girl loves fruit so much, I’ll grab an orange and sit with her. I eat a piece then she eats a piece. It’s good for both of us. Even Bill has gotten in the habit of making a fruit bowl at night to share with the dogs. 🍎🍉🍑🍓🍊🍍🍌🍐

What’s Your Pet’s Favorite Fruit? 🍎🍌🍉🫐🍓🍍🥑

Day 3 of Nutrition Week is all about fruits! Dogs (and cats, if they’ll eat ‘em) can obtain important phytochemicals and antioxidants not found in meat from fresh fruits. 🐶🐱 However, not all produce is safe for pets to consume; there are a few that should be avoided. Here’s a list of fruits you can share with your pet and fruits they should avoid. ⬇️

Learn about the benefits your pet can reap from these safe fruits when you read today’s free pet health article on bark and whiskers’ new website (link in the comments).

Okay, I’m not trying to make you all jealous; but I have to ask…How did you warm up for your day? I’m guessing YOU didn’t play soccer with a handsome young lad🥰⚽️🐾

Do you see the resemblance? Our designer captured Josie’s spirit perfectly for our new logo. She is the inspiration for WiseDog Pet Care. She continues to keep a diligent watch over our family. The day she no longer follows my every move will be the day I know her job is almost done. For now, we will cherish this happy girl who loves her banana. Watch the video and see what else we use the banana for🤫🥰

Just in case you missed my first post.

It's that time of year again when we start thinking about gifts for our beloved dogs.

Sadly, a popular choice is rawhide.

This great image from itsdogfood.com explains why we should avoid this product at all costs

Puppy eating blueberries

Ummm, can you say cutest blueberry-eating puppy EVER! This is Chiko, he is 4 months old, and he LOVES blueberries!

It feels really cool to build something of our very own; our own version of serving in a way that makes pet parenting a little less stressful. Can’t wait to see what the future holds.

Turbo and Diesel treat toss

Turbo and Diesel suggest you throw kindness around like dog treats. Even if your toss is a little rusty, it'll get better with practice:)

I dreaded my 3:30 visit today. Not because of the wind and rain compliments of hurricane Nicole, but because it was my last walk with Ms. Patsy before her family moves north. From the beginning, I had to earn Patsy’s approval as she was very tight with Bill. She didn’t want to leave her parents’ bedroom, let alone get off their bed. She rolled on the floor so I couldn’t put her collar on, and if I got the collar on she wouldn’t get up. If she got up, then she refused to cross the front door threshold. If we got out the door, she stopped, sat, and refused to budge. Little by little, Patsy’s ears perked up when I entered the room and called her name. Little by little, she wagged her tail when I approached with her collar. Then there was the day when she came out of the bedroom without coaxing, but the BEST day ever was when she pranced to the door and greeted me with her octopus! Her mom told me that was a big deal! I earned my place as a member of Patsy’s trusted circle. Our girl loves to sniff, and she also loves to kick grass in my face when I pick up her poo. If she doesn’t get a treat after she poos, she will cut off every step you take until said treat is delivered and it best be something she likes! Such a diva that Bill and I had the opportunity to spoil for 3 years. We sure will miss you Patsy Girl🥹

Henry's got swag!

This is Henry, the Corgi. Henry, the Corgi, has a cute butt. I may speak for many when I say, I wish my butt looked that cute when I trotted down the sidewalk.😂

Spending the morning enjoying one of Florida's more elusive natural wildlife... bats! A great form of mosquito control! Getting into that Halloween spirit 🎃👻🦇

Oh Levi ... Well, I mean at least he waited, so there's that.

This is Gunner's first experience with a food puzzle. First attempt, he nuzzled it and looked at me with head tilted and eyes asking, "What is this?" I SHOWED him what to do (no video 😅 of that, unfortunately). Second attempt, he put his nose down to business and didn't look at me once until every cookie piece and its crumbs rest in his tummy.

You ask for ball. I bring you ball.

Here is the Cup Game in action. I'm sure you can come up with a more clever name😆There are so many variations that can be done with this game according to your dog's strengths. You always want to set them up for success, not struggle. When the game got started Cosmo knew exactly what to do but Bella didn't, so I had to coach her a little more. You could do this on a smaller scale first and then go larger, and even add different rooms of the house, and a cue like "Go Find." I only have 30 minutes at my visit, which also includes a potty break for both dogs separately - they walk at different paces - mail, garbage, water refresh, etc. So we did this in our remaining time.

Enrichment - The Cup Game Setup

Too hot outside, play a game inside where it's nice and cool. If Bella and Cosmo were food aggressive at all, I would have them do this separately.

I guess this is the cutest stare down I've ever received. We call them the Z-crew and we visit this trio Monday - Friday while Mom and Dad work to support these three. Marty, Rosie, and Tessie as expert treat manipulators.

How many of you can relate? You're running late. You're working overtime. You're stuck in traffic. You're child's game/rehearsal has run longer than expected. You want to stop for dinner. You want to stop at the grocery store or it's been just that kind of day where your mental and physical gas gauge are tapping the "Empty" mark. Let us help. We do more than just vacation pet care. We can pop-in for a dog walk. We can let your pup out for some pool time. We can play fetch or we can play with food. This is Buddy, an energetic golden retriever puppy, who was eating 3 meals a day. During lunch, we not only provided a break from his crate, but we served up lunch in a Kong Wobbler. I imagine that is more fun for you and your pup than rushing home to a stressful situation.

Stop and smell the roses! Dogs use their noses for everything! Going on walks is great because it gives them time to sniff around in their outside environment, and learn and explore new things! This also helps them feel more safe and secure in their home environment. One benefit of hiring a pet sitter to walk your dog is we can let your pup take as long as they want sniffing around! If you're ever in a bind or late to something and just don't have time to let your pup explore, you can rely on us to allow them that opportunity. Their noses are their lifelines, and getting to use those noses at their full potential is all they want to do when outside!

Halfway through the week, everybody! Don't forget to consider your furry friends when making plans for the weekend! Leaving dogs locked inside a house for 6-12+ hours at a time can lead to accidents, anxiety, depression, and boredom in your pet. This is one of the many reasons why pet sits are such a great convenience for both you and them! You don't have to worry about coming home to a messy house, and they don't have to worry about waiting all day to use the bathroom or play with someone. Many of our clients use our services to allow their dogs a break in the middle of the day while they are away at work. This gives your dog the chance to use the bathroom, get a good belly rub, play, be given medications if needed, and enjoy a little exciting pick-me-up halfway through your work hours! Our friend, Patsy, loves her afternoon visit while mom and dad are working hard out of the house!!

Decisions, Decisions, Decision!! What's it gonna be? Snack time is the best time for everybody! Miss Lily especially enjoys getting to choose which DreamBone she gets to have for dessert. We always make sure your kiddo is spoiled while you're away! After all, is it really a vacation if snacks aren't involved??
