Joke: What kind of dog does Dracula have?
(scroll to the bottom to find the answer!) | | | Rescue Pup Felt Most at Home at the Senior Center
Scout was staying at a Michigan animal shelter but felt better suited to a senior care facility in the neighborhood. He first snuck out and traveled quite a ways to the senior center. He simply climbed up on the couch and made himself at home. This happened repeatedly. The dog would sneak out, and the staff would find him at the senior center and return him.
After a few times, the staff realized that the dog just wanted to be there instead of the shelter, so they adopted him. They gave him a name, Scout, and have cared for him lovingly. It was obvious that he felt safe there, and now he has free reign of the nursing home! He visits the residents and knows which ones keep treats. We are happy he found a special home! | | | Image courtesy of The Dogington Post. | | Where To Find Deals On Pet Supplies

Halloween is such a fun holiday, but dogs might not always agree. It can be overwhelming with lots of children dressed up in scary costumes and a doorbell that keeps on ringing. If you have a pup, taking a few steps to keep them safe and happy this Halloween is important. - Prepare your home. Many Halloween decorations can be a hazard for your pups. Be careful of candles, glow sticks, batteries, candy, fog machines, etc. Keep everything out of the pup's reach so they have a safe place to hang out when you aren't home.
- Give your dog a safe space. If you are throwing a party or inviting trick-or-treaters, give your pup a quiet, safe place to hang out. It can be overwhelming with so many people coming and going, strange costumes, and noise-making decorations.
- Entertain the dog. Leave a Kong with some frozen peanut butter for them to chew on and turn on some music on to help block the noise.
- Let your pup skip trick or treating. It's not advisable to bring your dog trick or treating. They would be subject to all the same scary things, but the chance of them getting freed from their collar is much higher.
- Create your own Halloween celebration with your dog. Just because they can't participate in some of the activities you're used to, you can still enjoy the holiday with them. Dress them up in a costume or create a dog-friendly treat to share with them.
- Watch for signs of anxiety. If your dog is panting, hiding, barking excessively, drooling, or acting strange, help them find a safe space to relax. Calming aids can help, like a thunder shirt. You can also talk to your vet about options to help them in stressful situations.
