Beethoven’s last movie came out in 2022, making him at least 22 years old and very much in the prime of his life. No, we will not be accepting criticisms of this statement.

Does your dog need some decompression time?
Stress signs in dogs can be subtle! Look for:
❗️Yawning
❗Tucked tail or pinned back ears
❗Excessive panting
❗Lip licking
❗Shivering or panting
❗Growling
❗Crouched or hunched body language
If you’re worried about your dog’s stress, take them on a ✨decompression walk✨
Trainers recommend giving your dog time to decompress after a stressful event, such as Fourth of July. During the event, setting your dog up with a quiet, dark place helps them feel safe and secure. Once the celebrations are over, take your dog out on a slow-paced stroll.
Remember: dogs are all about the journey, not the destination. Sniffing releases dopamine, lowers your dog’s pulse rate, helps them feel more optimistic, and gives them an opportunity to practice autonomy and decision-making. Look for calm, methodical sniffing accompanied by relaxed, open body language.

My greatest dream in my 20s was to have two pugs and name them Wonton and Potsticker. This dream has yet to materialize so let me live vicariously through other people’s dog names pls.

“Red Light Green Light” gives your dog an opportunity to practice being able to control themselves and listen to you while in a highly excited state. In short, it teaches impulse control. In the long run, it helps reward your dog for interacting with you instead of being distracted by their surroundings - very important if you ever want to take your dog off-leash!

What happened to the stars of Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey?
🦮 Ben: resumed work as a therapy dog and became Delta Society’s 1993 celebrity spokesdog
🐶 Rattler: became a sniffer dog for the fire department
🐱 Tiki: went on to be cast in the NBC sitcom “Caroline in the City” and toured with Maui, the canine star of “Mad About You”
Although Shadow, Chance, and Sassy encounter dozens of hazards throughout their journey, the movie employed dozens of handlers and animal puppets to ensure that all animals were safe throughout.
Many of the wilderness scenes were shot in the Eagle Cap Wilderness in Oregon. Dogs and trainers walked, while nine cats were placed in carriers strapped to pack mules (and were apparently incredibly vocal in their displeasure).
Working with both dogs and cats presented certain challenges, but the animals spent so much time working together that they bonded and became affectionate towards each other. In this way, they followed in the pawprints of the real life pet trio, immortalized by the author and their owner Sheila Burnford.
Unusual for most dog movies, Homeward Bound explores Chance’s reluctance to bond with his new family and touches on the trauma around abandonment. Although Chance’s emotions are heavily anthropomorphized, it’s true that newly adopted rescue dogs can take several weeks to relax and bond with their new families.

Present throughout filming was John Freed, a representative from the American Humane Association. Freed acted as an independent onlooker who ensured the wellbeing of all animal actors.
Filming presented other challenges: namely, set design. The dogs and puppies were noticeably shorter than their human coworkers, and the puppies struggled to navigate the sets comfortably and safely. The director chose to create two sets: one designed for the dogs and one for the humans.
Although the movie took measures to avoid working with breeders that intentionally produced litters for the movie, the success of the film led to 101 Dalmatians Syndrome. After the movie’s release, thousands of families purchased Dalmatian puppies, many of whom were abandoned or given to shelters when they proved challenging pets.
When the live-action sequel 102 Dalmatians was released in 2000, Disney worked with the Dalmatian Club of America and the Humane Society to educate the public about the Dalmatian’s specific needs and encourage responsible pet ownership.
