Kenneling your dog

After reading this article, I feel that my kennel meets all the requirements for a good kennel.  I don't have a vet on site but I am a certified vet assistant and my vet is 2 minutes away.

Pupsicles

Keep your dogs cool this summer with some pupsicles.  My dogs love these.

Ingredients: two mashed bananas, one cup strawberries (fresh or frozen), one cup organic apple juice, and two cups yogurt (plain or vanilla). Instructions: Puree all ingredients in a blender, pour into ice cube trays or small plastic cups, freeze for one hour or more as needed, and thaw just so slightly before serving.

Rescue Remedy

I started using Rescue Remedy on a rescue/foster dog I had that had separation anxiety.  I was amazed at how well it worked for her.  She ended up being so well crate trained that she would come and look for me at night to close the crate door so she could go nite nite.  Since then I have been using it on my dogs for thunderstorms and fireworks.  I also use it in my grooming business when I need to cut toenails of a nervous dog.  This stuff is the best.  Someone asked me once if I had any experience with it and at that point I did not but now I felt the need to share it with all of you.
