To all of our beloved and loyal clients, we all have a chance to help those that are in desperate need right now. Everybody wants to make a difference and even the smallest gesture will do just that. The organization Critical Response in Stress Incident Situations (C.R.I.S.I.S.) is working with Foothills Humane Society Animal Shelter in Columbus, North Carolina to help gather resources for owners and pets in need in light of Hurricane Helene.

Here in Michigan, there are a handful of locations open to accept food and medical donations that will be sent where needed (locations listed in the attached flyer). The option has also been provided to directly ship donations through Amazon to the shelter. The shelter is a private non-profit, 501(c)3 no-kill animal welfare organization and has also aided individuals in rescuing displaced and injured pets during these hard times.

Attached below are donation details and a list of desirable donation products. Any donations would be highly appreciated! We also would like to personally thank you all for taking the time to consider this cause.

Happy to be able to share one of the best parts of our job (aside from our fantastic clients)!

We have had the privilege of taking care of this wonderful little girl for a few days now, and we are in love to say the least. She was brought in to us on September 5th after being found separated from her mother in someone’s yard.

She is currently estimated to be about 5 weeks old and is still being bottle fed. She is also healthy, happy, and incredibly sweet. She will be ready for a new home in about 1 month, once she is better adjusted and more independent. Keep an eye out for more posts about her soon and share with friends!

While feeding a raw diet may be spiking in popularity, it may not be the best option for your pet. Just because dogs can technically eat raw meat, does not mean that they should. There are quite a few risks associated with feeding your dog a raw diet that are important to note.

Primarily, the American Veterinary Medical Association cautions that a raw diet may not provide proper balanced nutrition. In fact, consuming raw meat on the regular can actually increase the risk of nutritional deficiencies in the pet. A University of California, Davis study even revealed that there is hardly, if any, scientific support in favor of the raw diet.

The reason that most veterinarians would advise against a raw diet is the same reason that humans are not advised to consume raw meat; uncooked meat contains harmful bacteria that can cause illness and discomfort in our pets (and us). Raw chicken and beef specifically contain germs such as listeria and salmonella which can only be killed at high heat temperatures. Not only this, but you are putting yourself at risk by consistently handling these raw food products.

No matter what the issue, it is always the best and smartest idea to first consult with your veterinarian to ensure that you are doing the right thing to best fit the needs and interests of your pet. If your pet is on a raw diet, it is recommended by the CDC that all raw food is kept frozen then thawed in the fridge until use, and that all surfaces touched by the raw meat are thoroughly disinfected.

Read the article below from USA Today regarding raw diets for your pet to learn more information!

USA Today “The ‘raw food diet’ is an online fad for pet owners. But, can dogs eat raw meat?”:

Like their wild ancestors, dogs can technically eat raw meat, but it doesn't mean they should. Raw meat diets have high risks for your pet and family.

As promised, we have some updated pictures of our little adoptable pal Bucky!

Bucky is an incredibly sweet, handsome, playful, and strong-willed little ball of spice! He was the only surviving kitten from his litter, but quickly became a strong and healthy fighter in the care of his current fosters with our help.

With his unique colors, big heart, and darling little face, Bucky is on a mission to steal someone’s heart! Please send us a message if you are interested!
