Springtime Fun!
Finally, spring is here! And with it comes perfect weather to enjoy with your furry best friend.
Why not treat your cutie to a brand new season-inspired pastel or floral harness to step out in the sunny weather in colorful style? To know the correct sizing for harnesses, be sure to measure their neck and chest circumference (the girth is the widest part of the ribcage).
When on your walk, your dog is sure to stop and smell the roses since they -- and many other plants and flowers -- will be coming into bloom. But please make sure that whatever blossoms your baby gets close to are safe for them. For instance, the Lily of the Valley, Tulip, Azalea, Morning Glory, and Daffodil are all considered toxic to dogs. Keep in mind that some of the prettiest posies may pose potential harm. For a comprehensive list of toxic plants and flowers, please visit the ASPCA Poison Control Center website.
Perhaps your pooch prefers to take in the beautiful outdoor scenery in a more laid-back manner? Then a doggie stroller is the perfect way to let your companion get a breath of fresh spring air without even stepping a paw on the ground. Always a conversation piece, strollers allow your pal to accompany you almost anywhere, and are even great to use when you want your little one to join you for lunch at your favorite outdoor cafe!
Take the season one trendy step further and outfit your pup in a cute new lightweight spring tee or girly dress. You can select colors that match your own seasonal wardrobe. Or, perhaps your baby's fabulous fashions might inspire you to purchase some spring "people" clothes to match theirs!
Spring brings us some of the best weather of the year. Don't forget to cherish it with the little one you love!
