Avalanche: The Hunter

Even as Avalanche continues to recover from his spinal cord injury, he is so determined to resume his old life. Now that he has some mobility he is trying to get back into his bunny hunting. You should see him trying to scramble through bush trying to catch rabbits. He has bunny on the brain and thinks of nothing other than trying to catch his next rabbit. Good luck my special needs friend!

It is his determination that has gotten him this far, so who knows where he can be in another year!

Watch the Weather With Your Pups

With warmer weather upon is, you really need to remember that your pets can get stressed from the heat. Avalanche, our special needs Siberian Husky definitely slows down on warmer days and enjoys the coolness of our tile floors. Diva and Deon, being Dobermans, with black coats cannot handle the heat either even with a whole lot less fur. My son, not thinking took Diva for a run at 4:30pm the other day while it was still in the upper 80's. Needless to say, the pads on her feet got really sore from the hot pavement, and it took her a long time to cool down. Remember, dogs cannot sweat to cool themselves down. Their only option is to pant to release the carbon dioxide in their bodies, so take it easy with the pups and remember shoes are always on option on those hot days.
