Paws For Thought
“An old dog may slow down, but their love never fades. Their soft sighs, gentle eyes, and unwavering presence remind us that true friendship only grows richer with time.”

Interesting Fact
Lefty Or Righty? Find Out!

Did you know? Just like humans, dogs can have a “dominant” paw! 🐾 To find out if your pup is a lefty or a righty, hand them their favorite toy or interactive game and see which paw they use first. It’s a fun little experiment to learn more about your furry friend! 🐕

Photo Contest
And The Winner Is…

If you've been following along on Instagram, you've seen all our fantastic contestants in action - and now, we’re thrilled to reveal our winner!
