"Back to School" Tips for your pet
Transitioning into Fall
 September means summer is over and it's time for kids to get back to school. For those of you who have dogs, this break in routine means that we should think of the impact this has on the dogs. Here are some tips to make the transition go smoothly for your family and your beloved pooch.
Quality Time Counts
Our carefree summer days may be over but quality time with our pets needs to continue. Taking the dog out for walks after homework has been done is an ideal time for your kids to re-connect with their dog. Weekends can be spent lounging on the couch, playing a game of catch or taking long walks in the park. Even though your dog wasn't at work or school all day, he still needs time to unwind from his day. Make it special for him and for your family... more |

Happy Tails at PARL
Jethro's Tail
 In the last year, my husband and I have gotten married and have purchased our own home. Both of us grew up with dogs as part of our family so it made sense to us to start our new family by adding a dog to our household.
When we started to research what kind of dog we wanted, we found the PARL website and decided we wanted to give a shelter dog a happy, forever home. We continued to check the website daily to search for a dog that would fit into our lifestyle and that would get along with our 8 year old cat. We saw Jethro's picture and loved his forehead wrinkles... more |
