Keeping Cool During the Dog Days of Summer

Like humans, your dog will appreciate a cold drink to quench his thirst on a hot summer day.

Don’t let the end of summer get you down. Fall is the perfect hiking season. Here are a few things to remember to ensure your doodle stays safe and healthy.

Be aware of the dangers to your dog from blue-green algae in ponds, lakes, and rivers. No one wants to drink green water; I had no idea how dangerous it is until recently.

Taking your dog on a “sniff walk” has become the latest trend. I see reels and read articles; the idea is everywhere. Remember, you want to be a good dog parent and provide some boundaries even when they’re enjoying the slower pace of sniffing.
