Paws For Thought
“The secret to life is to handle every situation like a dog: If you can’t play with it, eat it or bury it, just pee on it and walk away.”

Did You Know?

A new Florida law passed late last year that has given relief to many homeowners restricted by HOA rules on artificial turf. This law overrides existing HOA bylaws, allowing residents to install artificial turf in their backyards. While turf has its pros and cons and is a bit controversial for some, this law marks a significant step in empowering homeowners to make sustainable landscaping choices.

Our Fans
(not Only Fans haha) 😀

🐶 Marley is an 8-month-old rescue from UFAR Animal Rescue in Margate, Florida, and has been an amazing addition to our family

🐕 Whispa was a street rescue from Romania who then traveled to England before coming to the States. She has truly rescued her owner with her loving spirit.

Share your pup’s 📸 photo with me! Reply to this email with a picture, and I'll do my best to feature it in an upcoming newsletter or on social media. I get so many photos, and while I can’t share them all, I’ll try to display as many as possible!

🫐 Can Dogs Eat Blueberries?

While you're enjoying a snack, your pup is probably eyeing every bite you take, making you wonder if it's safe to share your blueberries with them.

The good news is, yes, dogs can eat blueberries! Fresh or frozen, blueberries are safe for dogs and offer great nutritional benefits. They are rich in antioxidants, vitamins C and K, and manganese, which help with digestion and nutrient absorption. Blueberries also provide soluble fiber and have anti-inflammatory properties.

Remember to share human food with your dog in moderation. A small handful of blueberries from your serving is a healthy treat for your furry friend. So go ahead and let your pup enjoy this tasty and nutritious fruit along with you!
