Today is National Adopted Dog Day — and we have a story to share. 🐾❤️

Meet Amelie, a five-year-old Weimaraner and proud camper at Camp Run-A-Mutt Houston Galleria. She came from the Weimaraner Rescue of Texas at just six months old, rescued from a situation no dog should ever be in. Today she sleeps in her mom’s bed, runs free at her grandparents’ ranch, and goes by “Omelette” at camp — where she has opinions about how long mom lingers at drop-off. 😂

We’re sharing her full story on the blog today in honor of every dog who found their second chapter.

A quick reminder — we’re still collecting adoption stories from our camp families this week in honor of National Adopted Dog Day on September 23rd.

If your dog came from a rescue or shelter, we’d love to see their picture and hear their story! Send us a DM or share in the comments. 🐾❤️

Fall can actually be one of the best times for your pup to start daycare. Here's why:

✅ Cooler temps make outdoor play even more enjoyable
✅ Your dog gets a consistent routine while the household schedule shifts
✅ It’s a great time to build a new habit before the holidays

If it's your first time considering daycare, we make it easy! It starts with a temperament test and a trial day, and we'll take it from there. We'd love to meet you and your pup!

We want to hear your adoption story! 🐾

National Adopted Dog Day is September 23rd, and we’re celebrating by featuring one of our very own rescue campers. But first, we want to hear from YOU.

Did you adopt your dog? Drop a picture of them and their story in the comments or send us a DM. Where did they come from? What were they like on day one? Who are they today?

We’ll be selecting a story (or stories!) to feature on September 23rd. Every rescue story deserves to be told. ❤️🐶

Is your dog giving you the eyes every morning when you leave? 👀

A little velcro behavior is normal. But if your dog is pacing, destructive, or unusually clingy, they might be telling you something. Dogs thrive on routine and connection, and a big change can throw that off.

A couple days of daycare a week for your pup can make a huge difference in adjusting to the back to school season. It's something fun to look forward to, they get to see their friends, and burn off some energy. When you come to pick them up, they'll be ready and content to snooze. 💤

DM us or ask about getting started — we’d love to help!

Whether the kids are already back to school or heading back soon, your dog has likely started to feel a shift at home.

Like us, dogs are often creatures of habit. When routines shift and stimulation drops, the quiet around the house can be difficult for many dogs.

The good news is that daycare can help your pup keep a regular routine! With familiar faces, same friends, and same energy, the fun can continue, and the back to school season can be an easier transition. 🎒🐶

Happy National Dog Day! 🎉 And what better way to celebrate than with a dog fact?

Dogs are the only animals besides humans that actively seek eye contact with people to communicate. Wolves (even ones raised by humans) don’t do this.

So when your dog looks at you with those eyes, know they're connecting with you in a truly unique way.

We'd love to see your pup in the comments — we want to celebrate them with you today! 🧡🐶

For this week’s : Did you know dogs dream? 💤

Not only that, but the size of the dog can influence both the frequency and duration of their dreams.

Smaller dogs tend to dream more frequently, while larger dogs experience longer individual dream cycles.

Have you seen your pup dreaming while sleeping?

This week’s : dogs can effectively “smell time.”

Because scents fade at a predictable rate, dogs can use their nose to detect what just happened, as well as roughly how long ago it happened. It’s one of the reasons scent-tracking dogs are so helpful.

Just another fact that proves our pups are remarkable! 🧡
