When you decide to release “in memory of" balloons, they don’t go where you hope and think they will. They usually end up in a field where livestock are. Often, young calves or goats will chew on/eat the balloons…

Ingesting plastic such as a trash bag or a balloon can cause intestinal blockage in animals. This may cause starvation. Some livestock may even choke on the balloon, causing a very painful death.

For wildlife and even PETS, they can become entangled in the balloon strings, causing them not to be able to move or even strangling them.

I understand the sentiment behind releasing balloons and the grief felt from losing a loved one. BUT there are so many other options!

- Plant a flower garden or make a rock garden in memory of a loved one.
- Plant a tree and watch it grow.
- Host an “In Memory” Celebration WITHOUT releasing balloons.
- Name a star.

Remember: releasing balloons may give you a moment of comfort, but somebody else may be hurt by the consequences.

EDIT TO ADD: This goes for trash bags as well. Please, don't dump out trash on the road side!

Pavement can be 40 to 60 degrees hotter than the air temp. Not only are hot temps dangerous for your furry friends feet, their overall health can be drastically affected if they're out in temps over 77°F.

Forgot to post this last week. I lost my fur baby/fur buddy on this day last week:

There's nothing more devastating than losing someone close to you. For me today, that someone was my little buddy and fur-baby, Maxwell. From the day I first got him, he was the best thing to happen to me, second only to my wife. If I was stressed or having a rough day, he cheered me up. Those little coal black eyes melted my heart every time I looked into them. He was my OTHER other half and he always made me and my wife laugh. He was never short on personality and love. He deserved the world and I and my wife made every effort to show him just what he meant to us.
Five months ago, Maxwell fell off the back of the couch and I immediately took him to our family vet. After visiting our vet and two different vet specialists, we find out that our fur-baby has a congenital disorder that causes his spine to not fully develop and that his brain was partially crowding his skull, a combination that takes years off of his life, is difficult to treat, and makes it painful at times for Maxwell to move around. The best course of action was pain management and comfort care since no surgery could give him a good quality of life.
This morning, I left Maxwell asleep on the bed but before I got home, he decided to jump off the bed (which he has NEVER done). He ended up severely fracturing one front leg and causing a simple fracture in the other. Our family vet told us that a simple cast could fix one but surgery with pins and plates could only fix the other, which could take over two months to fully heal, and even then, he might not be able to walk quite the same without problems or pain at times. I told the vet that with Maxwell already having comfort care and pain management with his other conditions, he didn't deserve to be put through additional suffering. I and my wife made a decision that we never wanted to make but was necessary.
As he lay on the table under partial anesthesia, I and my wife whispered how much we love him and how good and sweet of a boy he truly was. We know that he knew that he was never alone, how much we loved him, and that he would always have a very special place in our hearts.
Maxwell passed away peacefully and pain-free this afternoon at approximately 1:30 surrounded by his loving parents. He will be forever missed and forever in our hearts. He is playing on the rainbow bridge now and never has to worry about pain again.

Something my dog Maxwell has taught me: If you are needing to help your dog gain weight and/or help him gain more nutrients to help his weight, don't waste your money on nutritional supplements or products designed to help dogs gain weight and get vital nutrients. Just go buy cans of wet or even dry cat food, that is, if they seem to like eating it, which I have found most do. Often, malnourished dogs are often given cat food to help them gain weight and extra nutrients. Unlike dog food, cat food has extra fat and protein due to cat nutrition requirements. It also has essential vitamins and minerals in the top best brands. However, only give them a measured amount once a day and once they have achieved a healthy weight, resume a usual healthy diet for them as continuing to give them cat food may lead to gastrointestinal issues or other health problems.

We are temporarily closed AGAIN due to having to deal with my poor pupper going into evaluation for surgery in two weeks to fix his alantoaxial instability. He is my little ambassador for pet training after all. I'm so sorry for the inconvenience but we may not be operational until January. Stay tuned. I will post details as soon as I know anything. Limited operation may resume soon.

I'm proud to finally announce that Taylor'd Pet Care will be re-opening it's doors very soon! Availability of in-home consultations for pet daycare and in home pet training classes will available asap!
I also am proud to announce dog-therapy sessions with Maxwell, my ambassador Cava-tzu pup! Maxwell has been training hard these past 8 months to be my ambassador dog/therapy dog and he is excited to travel with me as my partner in crime to show clients how well I can train dogs.

I apologize to anyone who has attempted to call since February and never got a call back. I unfortunately have been unable to schedule any jobs be because of home renovation and raising a new puppy and forgot to mention that my office is closed until further notice while I focus my attention on getting everything back in order. I apologize for any inconvenience.

During these freezing temperatures, please keep all pets indoors where they can stay warm and safe. If you see a pet being left outside for too long, talk to the owner first if possible or you feel safe to do so or report the animal to your local shelter for lost pets. If you see a stray pet, please make a effort to take them in and keep them warm and healthy or find someone who can.

I stand 100% behind this and I feel this needs to be made known. Please read.
