Importance of Weight Management
Obesity rates in the United States continue to rise in children and adults. What is interesting and alarming is the parallel of increasing obesity in our furry companions. Approximately 52.5% of dogs and 58.3% of cats are overweight or obese in this country and the numbers appear to be rising. Carrying around this excess weight can have devastating effects on their health, longevity, functional mobility and pain.

"Follow Fletch" -- Fletcher's Story

We had just lost our beloved 12 year old black lab Clark on April 25th and missed him dearly. We hadn't decided what we were going to do as far as bringing another dog into our lives. I think everyone struggles with this decision. Are we ready? Is it too soon? Were we betraying Clark's memory?

May 8, 2014 - A random post on a Facebook asked for help over the next weekend with picking up and housing a rescued black lab over the weekend. Rocky Mountain Lab Rescue would have a place for him in a few days but they needed help for him over the weekend. The house was quiet  and it seemed like the perfect opportunity to help a dog in need. I inquired and they were still looking for help. The plan was to pick him up at the Erie Colorado airport on Saturday, May 10th at noon. We had a couple days to think about what this would mean and were mostly excited but also not sure what trauma this dog had been through and what he would need.
