The Dog and the Cat.

If you haven't already checked out The Dog and the Cat in Essex Junction, you should.  It is such a fabulous store offering lots of healthy food and snack options for dogs and cats.  Not to mention all the cool and fun toys, clothes, and accessories for your pet.  April is the owner and she is incredibly knowledgeable about all things cat and dog.  Check out their site: http://www.thedogandcatvt.com/.

Heat.

It's summer.  So, obviously it is hot outside.  What feels hot to you feels even hotter to your dog.  There is a whole school of thought about what foods you should feed your dog when it is hot as well as when it is cold.  One wonderful snack to give your dogs in the dog days of summer is watermelon.  Just cut up a watermelon into bite size pieces and give them to your dog on hot days.  No worries about the seeds, they are super soft so the pooches will just chew them up and swallow them.  It will cool them down and they will love the snack!  A few pieces at a time is plenty.

Like a lollipop for your pooch.

Marrow bones are a fabulous thing for your pooch. They can be found in the meat section at your local grocery store. They come in different sizes depending on the size of your pooches mouth. They are so good for their teeth. It helps keep their pearly whites, well, pearly white and healthy. They will chew on one for a good long time and go back to it several times for another lick.  We usually give one to our dogs at least once a week.  Be prepared for a bit of a mess and lay down a sheet or blanket and let them go to town.  They will love it!  The one in the picture is quite large- the largest one we've ever given to our dogs.  IMG_4710

Just a reminder.

If your dog has food sensitivities/allergies and your are mindful of the ingredients in their food you should be just as mindful of the ingredients in their treats.

Our new favorite place to bring our dogs.

So you've done the dog parks, Red Rocks, and various other beautiful hikes and spots to bring your pooches for some exercise. If you are looking for something new, interesting, and unique, we've got a great place for you. St Anne's Shrine in Isle La Motte in the Champlain Islands.  Although it is a Shrine, you don't have to be under any religious persuasion to go there. It is located on thirteen acres along the shores of Lake Champlain, and it overlooks the Adirondack Mountains. There's a great beach with lots of sticks that just want to be chased into the water.  And if you want to get some praying in, well then you are certainly in the right place...
