How to travel with your dog in hot weather? It’s not impossible!
We Do NOT advocate VIGILANTE “justice”SMASHED WINDOW
We’ve all seen the photos in the media, or heard about it on the news, and in some cases the interventions (vigilante justice) are justified. That said, for the most part, people are diligent about keeping their dogs in suitable conditions for the weather. The problem is, those conditions aren’t always obvious to those on the outside. Some vehicles won’t allow you to lock your doors if the motor is running, which means running the A/C is not necessarily safe. There are other options for keeping your pet cool. Portable air conditioners are becoming popular and more affordable.

Vehicle Decal
Adding a few decals to your windows can act as a deterrent to overzealous animal lovers, saving you hundreds of dollars to replace shattered windows or damaged doors.
With the foundation work done properly, grooming can be a very pleasant experience for you and your dog. Our dearly departed Glock getting his spring haircut back in 2012!

Rogue “points” to the Beef TendersDrying out. Momma’s curly coat.
I laughed at Rogue this afternoon. The moment she got out of the shower, she pointed to the treat bag! I thought it was a great idea for a blog post. Hope you enjoy it. Beef Tenders (not available in the US) are a favourite in our house! See more about our dog’s favourite treats here!
Love it or hate it, electronic collars, known as e-collars, do have a place in the dog training tool kit. Just like any other training tool, its place in training is neither good nor bad, it’s all about the way it’s being used. E-collar training is no exception.
While I agree with Snoopy’s thought, the best time to bring a new puppy into the home is when the atmosphere in the home is calm and normal. NOT in the craziness of the holiday season. If you did get a puppy and are feeling overwhelmed, have a read through some of my articles on puppy raising.
These simple tools can help keep you and your pets safe!
Yesterday I was training our youngster Quest alongside one of my husband Ron’s private students. I was getting her dressed in a protection harness to do some puppy prey work when I noticed what I thought were “eye boogers”! UGH!!! It was not, it was a tick. I DO NOT do ticks! I can do anal glands, placenta, vomit, assist in surgery, you name it, but ticks make my skin crawl! I told Ron that Quest had a tick on her face. He said he didn’t have a tick removal tool with him, they were all at the house. However, his student spoke right up and said she had a Tick Key. She got it for us, and Ron was quickly and easily able to remove the intruder from Quest’s fuzzy little face!
With more hours of darkness upon us, nighttime safety with dogs is crucial! Whether you walk on the streets after dark, or just play in your back yard, visibility is important. Last year we bought our dogs these amazing LED dog collars. They are rechargeable, water proof, and extraordinarily durable, which certainly makes them the perfect collar for dogs of all ages and sizes. With a variety of colours you can dress multiple dogs differently for ease of identification; perfect when you have dogs that look similar!
Just as important as making your dog visible, is making sure you also have high visibility. This sash is not only reflective, but with rechargeable LED lights on the front and back, it’s a game changer! The adjustable sizing, and handy clip allow you to walk your dog hands free which is also an added safety feature. Available in three colour choices, you can be safe and fashionable!
Not just for hunting season, visibility is important any time!
Not just for hunting season, now anytime walks all year round just got safer because of this highly visible and reflective dog vest. With water resistant material and the adjustable design features accompanied with numerous reflective strips and patches, this vest will ensure your dog can be seen in the woods, on the road, or anywhere your dog loves to walk and play.
When I write about dog issues, and review products that help with said issues, I’m committed to recommending products and techniques I either use now, or have used in the past. I’m not just selling you stuff, I’m offering you my wisdom, and experience.
