Back to Work-Separation Anxiety
Separation anxiety is discussed often by dog owners, especially now as pandemic pups are awaiting to enter the real world of… well, simply people not being home. Some of us (me) didn’t even go out grocery shopping! According to a new study, 70% of dogs have anxiety.
How to keep it cool in the summer
Many things seem like “common sense” when it comes to keeping yourself and your dog cool during the summer. But dogs are very different in the way they manage hot weather as they do not sweat to cool down as we do. Let’s talk about the tips from the experts and my experience in keeping the dogs safe from heatstroke!
TICKS… prevention beyond medication
TICKS. Everyone is talking about TICKS.
Does it seem like there are more of them this year?
YES! Ticks are everywhere, even the dogs who only go on sidewalk walks are getting ticks. The monthly tick/flea medication is great and only works if ticks bite your fur baby but it does not deter them from coming onto their fur and into our homes, sofa and bed! Oh yuk! It is safe to say that we should do everything we can to protect our dogs from these awful pests.
Benefits of Canine/Pet Massage
Let’s talk about the benefits of massaging your dog. We think of massage as a form of relaxation but there is so much more! For dogs, canine massage has similar benefits. It can be used at home for relaxation and stress relief, to help dogs with anxiety or nervous disorders, to provide relief for arthritis, and to aid in the healing of muscles, joints and bones.
