F. Y. I.
- Be sure your dog’s collar is equipped with a tag containing your name and phone number.
- Be sure your dog always has an ample supply of clean, cool drinking water.
- Brush your dog weekly to remove dead hair and promote a shining, healthy coat.
- Bathe your dog only when necessary. Frequent bathing removes natural oils from the coat causing dry skin.
- An overweight dog is not a healthy animal. Limit treats and do not overfeed your dog.
- Never leave your dog in a locked car. The temperature within the car rises very quickly and can easily cause heatstroke - a potentially fatal condition.
- Many household products are toxic to your dog. Store such items as
cleansers, colognes, medications, & anti-freeze in a secure place away
from your dog.
- Some varieties of houseplants, such as African violets, petunias, &
poinsettias, are poisonous to your dog.
- When training a dog, focus on the successes and the good behavior. Be
patient. Never hit, kick or yell at your dog.
