Paws For Thought

“Your dog thinks you’re perfect - treat yourself with the same kindness.”

Keep My Dog Forever

Scooting Trouble?
Simple Kitchen Cure

If your dog is scooting 🐩 across the carpet, here's a simple home remedy to try: Give them a spoonful of mashed 🍑 peach (remove the skin). This gentle digestive aid can relieve the anal gland pressure that's likely causing the behavior.

Keep your dog's fiber intake consistent, and make sure they're getting enough water throughout the day. Regular exercise 💪 also helps keep everything moving smoothly through their system.

The residents of Pompano Beach ☀️ have expressed interest in designating a portion of the beach as a dog-friendly zone. The City is exploring the possibility of creating this space in a low traffic area, though a specific location has not yet been determined.

This proposed "Dog Beach" would offer guests and their furry companions a safe, welcoming environment with clearly posted rules and guidelines.

The City is committed to ensuring this initiative reflects the values and expectations of the community. Your input will help guide the development of this concept.

Hollywood Dog Park

The Hollywood Dog Beach in Florida 😎 is a great spot for dog parents to let their pups run and splash. It’s a 100-yard stretch between Pershing and Custer Streets where dogs can play off-leash during set hours.

The beach is open 7 days a week, sunrise to sunset. Passes are required 🎟️ and can be bought on-site or at the local parks office.

Make sure your dog is licensed, vaccinated, and leashed outside the beach area. For a fun, sun-filled outing with your pup, Hollywood Dog Beach is hard to beat.

🤔 Interesting Fact

It’s More Than A Sneeze

Dogs don’t just sneeze because of dust or allergies - they often sneeze to communicate! A quick, playful sneeze is a common way for dogs to show they’re having fun and mean no harm. It’s like their way of saying, "Hey, I’m just goofing around!"

In fact, a 2017 study found that wild African dogs actually use sneezes to negotiate group decisions. Closer to home, your pup might sneeze as a “calming signal,” letting other dogs (or you) know they want to take a break or keep things friendly. Sneezes are more than just cute - they’re a big part of doggy body language!
