Fun In The Sun, Canine Style

May 20th, 2009 by Kristin C. in Animals, Kristin C., Pets, anything goes

I am so excited that summer is almost here. This means more time outside for myself and ‘the fam’ and this includes our dog. Being in full wrinkle prevention mode I am always applying sunscreen to myself and to the kids to avoid guilt inducing sunburns.

Doggy Daycare is a new and fascinating concept and is becoming very common in urban and suburban areas throughout the United States. The veterinary hospital where I work has a doggy daycare associated with it and over the last 3 years I have had the opportunity to see just what it is like behind the scenes.
