How Hot is Your Car?

An enclosed car heats up quicker then you would think. According to a study by San Francisco State University the interior of your car can be 40 degrees higher then the outside temperature. For example if it is 80°Foutside the temperature in a car raises to 99°F in just 10 minutes, and to 109°F in 20 minutes. Even leaving the window open a crack only helps by a few degrees. A dog’s normal body temperature is between 101 to 102.5.  Placed into a car on a hot day, after a short time the dog could suffer nerve damage, heart problems, liver damage, brain damage, or death. Maybe, your...

Tomorrow many us will be taking part in the 42nd Annual Earth Day.  I remember learning about the environment and the effect we all have on it.  For years, I have tried to change small habits in my daily life to become more green and reduce my own carbon foot print.  What about my pets?   There must be better choices I could be making to have greener pets.  After some research, I found a few simple things I could do.

At the Pawfest event here in Largo, FL we meet a wonderful lady named Fran.  She volunteers with the Pinellas County Animal Services for a program called Senior-to-Senior. Tragically as the shelters  fill  during these years of economic hardship, the number of senior pets has also increased.  They are relinquished due to ill health, incontinence, other age-related issues, lack of funds, or the owner passing away.  These older pets are very likely to remain in the shelter for the remainder of their life or be euthanized to make room for more adoptable animals. This great program is trying to help these loving pets enjoy their remaining life in a happy home....

Did you know there was a Pet ID week?  Lets take advantage of it and learn why your pet should have some kind of  identification. The best chance of having your pet returned safe and sound is through their ID.  One out of three pets get lost at some point in their life. Sadly 90% of pets without current ID are never returned to their families.  There a few different types to chose from. 1.  Dog Tag – They are usually plastic or metal with your pet’s name and your contact information.  I recommend using your cell phone number.  Think about it. ...
