Paws For Thought

“Your dog doesn’t need you to be perfect. They just need you to be there - with a kind voice, a gentle hand, and a little time.”

Kibble Upgrade
Small Changes, Big Benefits

Adding simple, wholesome toppings is an easy way to boost nutrition - and your dog will thank you with tail wags. Try a splash of Jaffee’s bone broth for hydration and joint support, or crack a fresh egg 🥚 over their bowl a few times a week to add natural vitamins and amino acids. A spoonful of plain Greek yogurt or kefir can introduce gut friendly probiotics for better digestion.

Just make sure these fresh extras stay under 25% of their total daily calories to maintain a balanced diet.

Big Dog Station
Dive In With Your Pup

Big Dog Station in Oakland Park is a laid-back, dog-loving neighborhood bar where pups are always welcome. It’s a true local favorite with dive-bar charm, friendly bartenders, plenty of TVs for the game, and a steady lineup of 🎸 live music, themed nights, and Music Bingo that keep things lively all week long.

The menu hits all the comfort food cravings, from juicy burgers 🍔 and crispy tots to wings, buffalo tacos, and stacked 🥪 sandwiches. Open from morning to late night, it’s the kind of spot where you can swing by after a walk with your dog or settle in for a relaxed evening with good food, cold drinks, and even better company - whether they bark or not.
