Summer is coming...

Summer is on it's way here and we want to make sure everyone is prepared. Here are a couple of tips to help you and your beloved furry friends stay cool, safe and enjoy the warmer months.

*Stay hydrated. This is key. Make sure to not only keep yourself hydrated but your pup as well. If you're planning a hiking trip, make sure to bring plenty of water for everyone. There are numerous pet friendly water bottles on the market so you and your dog can enjoy yourselves without the worry or hassle of dehydration.

*Check all fences and gates. Landscapers have great intentions but often leave gates or fences open. Make sure to double check all gates before letting your animals into the yard.

* Tick season. Take it from me~ticks will try to hitch a ride with your furry friends. Make sure, after EVERY walk, to check your dog for ticks. It's easy to remove a tick the sooner they latch on, which makes life easier for you and your pup. Ticks can be removed with tweezers and bravery. If you've found a stubborn tick that cannot be removed by a mere mortal, make an appointment with your vet as soon as possible.

Most of all, enjoy the summer months with your pets. Summer is a great time for fun outdoor activities that can't always be done in the winter months.
