Have you ever heard of a break away collar? It's a special collar that prevents accidental choking when dogs are left unsupervised. If the collar is caught on something, it will break apart. You can bypass the breakaway when leashing your dog, by clipping your leash to both clips on either side of the breakaway piece. Flash has this collar because Timber likes to grab a him by the collar during play, and this could be extremely dangerous if her tooth or jaw became caught around his collar. My dogs wear harnesses on walks, so this collar is meant for occasional leashing, ID tags, and his Tractive tracker. You can find these on Amazon. Search Pet Safe Keep Safe Break Away Collar.
We're thrilled to announce that Atticus and Joey have officially graduated from our Puppy Start Right Socialization Class with Certified Instructor, Kieran Halliday! ๐๐ถ Congratulations to these adorable pups and their dedicated owners on supporting your puppy's development through positive socialization. ๐พโค๏ธ ๐ถ๐ For those looking to join the fun, our classes run every Saturday at noon. Remember, your puppy should be under 16 weeks of age and have had at least one Parvo/Distemper Vaccine prior to attending their first class. Start any time (as long as we have space); puppies start at different times and end after attending 4 classes. Plus, you can attend more than 4 classes if you like, as long as your puppy is under 16 weeks old while attending. ๐พ๐ผ #PuppyGraduates #PuppyStartRight #CongratulationsJoeyAndAtticus ๐๐ถ

It's not about being naughty; it's about survival instincts! ๐ฆด ๐ ๐ช๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐ผ๐ ๐ฑ๐ผ? Be aware and proactive!
