Paws For Thought
“Sometimes the best therapist has four paws, a wet nose, and a habit of staying by your side.”
Pup Hack
Blueberry Bobbing
Keep your pup busy with a shallow bowl of water and a few blueberries for a fun little game of blueberry bobbing. Blueberries provide antioxidants, fiber, and vitamins C and K.
Serve them plain and washed, and keep portions small: 1-2 for extra-small dogs, 2-3 for small dogs, 4-5 for medium dogs, and 5-10 for large dogs. Supervise playtime, especially with small dogs, and skip canned or sweetened berries.

Meet Munchie, a resilient 18-month old medium-sized mixed-breed female weighing about 35 pounds. After arriving from the British Virgin Islands, Munchie was diagnosed with an immune-mediated skin condition. Two medications help manage it, and she will likely need ongoing treatment.
Munchie is housebroken, enjoys car rides and long walks, and gets along with dogs and people after proper introductions. This loving ❤️ girl is ready for a patient forever home.

Nose To Know 🤔
Your Dog Knows Your Routine
Dogs notice patterns better than you may think. They connect small clues like your shoes, keys, clothing, and movements with what happens next. Your dog may know you are leaving before you touch the doorknob.
