A Boy, a Bicycle, & a Best Friend
 
 
 
 Every now & then you get a chance to watch a beautiful relationship develop right before your eyes.  Meet Jake and his puppy, Tina.  Jake brings Tina to daycare twice a week and then heads on to school.   Tina just trots right along with Jake as he pedals to and from school.  It has been a joy to watch them both grow up.   What a wonderful life Tina has... an exercise regimen, socialization with a balanced group of dogs, and a thoughtful, caring owner!

Day Hikes with your Dog:

The greater Austin area offers many great trails and places to hike.  Take advantage of this cooler weather now because it won't be long before it is much to hot & humid for long hikes.  If your dog is under 1 1/2 years, they should be only going on short hikes otherwise you can damage the cartilage in their joints. 
 
These basics are essential for a dog-gone great time.
 
1.  Water & a collapsible dog bowl. Keep your dog hydrated and giardia-free by providing his own water.
 
 2.  Leash; when approaching people, esp. kids, other dogs or livestock (the QuickDraw leash by Ruff Wear, works great).
 
3.  Booties; rough terrain can be tough on your dog's pads if they have not been conditioned for it. 
 
4.  First Aid Kit; include vet wrap.
 
5.  Snacks & Treats; both for you and your dog.
