🦴 Chewing isn’t just fun... it’s essential! Chewing helps puppies and adult dogs release stress, keep teeth healthy, and satisfy natural instincts.
What’s your dog’s favorite chew?

Our Kennel Assistants routinely chop fresh mint leaves up & leave them to soak in hot water from morning to late afternoon.
This aids our dog’s digestion & dental health. As a bonus the dogs have minty fresh breath🍃!

Dogs dig! It's a species-typical behavior. While we don't want our flower beds to be dug up, giving them a space to dig sure helps meet their needs!

I'm beyond over this weather. It's pretty but limits outside time for the dogs. How's everyone coping?
We combat some of the boredom with various #canineenrichment strategies. In this example, we tossed some kibble in the toy box.
