Happy April and yay for warmer weather!
April 23 is Lost Dog Awareness day. We don’t like to think we can lose track of our furry buddies, but one in three pets ends up missing at some point in their lives — and only 21 % end up making it home. YIKES! Aside from microchipping your dog and properly fitting her for a tagged collar, we have a great article with quicks steps you can take to find your lost dog.
