dog safety

  • A fence is not the same as a small cage. Letting a dog spend time in a safely fenced area can be a good thing - giving it some limited freedom without letting it get into trouble!

    Please Fence Me In!
    Mindy Norton
    Keeping your dog in a fenced yard does more than just keep it from running away. It actually protects your pet and gives it a safe place to enjoy the outdoors!
  • The dog has it figured out - the grass doesn't hurt its paws as much as the paved sidewalk!

    Walking the Dog When It's HOT!
    Don't walk your dog in the heat of the day; find a time in early morning or in the evening, and stay on the grassy areas! Remember, your pet is barefoot!
