My Sister's Dog is Coming To Town

Read on for a few tips to keep the hollidays happy and safe between relative animals!

The Holidays are here and that means spending time with the ones we love the most, so why shouldn’t we include our 4 footed friends too? Our top 3 tips for throwing a safe and fun holliday gathering are: 1.) Make sure to only allow play time between dogs that get along. 2.) Start the party outside in either a fenced back yard or at an off leash dog park to burn off excess energy before coming inside. 3.) Don’t serve treats that take a long time to chew, like rawhides. Fights can break out if the dogs are left to eat near each other.
