Paw Health
Fleas Have Bathroom Breaks?

Think your pup might have fleas? Have them lie on a white towel while you ๐Ÿชฎ brush through their fur. Any tiny black specks that fall onto the towel could be flea poop - those pesky parasites leave droppings made of digested blood.

To confirm, add a few drops of water to ๐Ÿ’ง the specks - if they turn reddish-brown, itโ€™s definitely flea poop. A quick towel test can help you catch fleas early and keep your dog itch-free!

My Name Is Tris

๐Ÿท๏ธ Dog ID: A2421298 ๐Ÿท๏ธ

Tris is a sweet ๐Ÿฅฐ 4-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier whoโ€™s been waiting far too long for her forever home. Found wandering in West Park back in April, sheโ€™s proven to be gentle, friendly, and great on ๐Ÿฆฎ walks - a favorite among volunteers.

Shelter life has been tough on her, and sheโ€™s ready to trade kennel walls for a comfy couch. Tris is spayed, ๐Ÿ’‰ vaccinated, and microchipped - and thanks to Leisa Wade, The Pet Realtor, her adoption and registration fees are fully covered.
