Nothing slows Milo down—not even a tough start! Brought to Peterborough Humane Society after a serious injury, Milo's resilience shone through from the start. Now thriving in his loving home, he’s become the biggest cuddler and social butterfly. Despite his challenges, Milo runs, jumps, and plays just as well as his fur-siblings. This National Adoption Week, bring home your very own Milo. Thanks to the support of Hill's Pet Nutrition, even more pets will be able to find their loving families this week.

The bond between humans and their adopted pets is such a unique, special connection. Dottie is a rescue dog we adopted. She is my partner at work, hiking, and laying on the couch. Once you adopt a pet it is important to take care of them to maintain that bond. A proper diet, exercise, preventative checkups, and necessary medications are all important to keep your pet healthy. To help shelters across the U.S. ensure that pet adopters are set up for success, Zoetis and Adopt-a-Pet.com have partnered up to focus on improving access to essential pet care and resources.

Pet parents are all heart! According to Best Friends Animal Society, 9 out of 10 pet parents consider pets a family member. And it’s no different when they’ve welcomed a rescue pet into their pack, whether permanently or as fosters. Research by Forbes shows that some of the top ways pet parents show their love toward their fur babies include: Taking family photos with their pet (58.7%), Including their pet in a holiday card (36.2%), Regularly preparing homemade food or treats (45%), Ordering their pet a special treat at a restaurant (43.2%), Taking their dog to dog-friendly activities (43.2%), Buying their pet a holiday gift (67.2%). If this sounds like you, you are a special breed, and our kind of pet parent! 🐾🎉 To celebrate National Pet Parents Day on April 28 — and help more pets find and stay in their forever homes — Pet Prana® is partnering with select pet rescue organizations to champion foster and adoption, and empower pet parents with free dog training resources.

How does your organization help care for special needs pets? At the BUB Fund we are always looking for innovative and sustainable systems of care to help protect the human-animal bond. Brynn is a dog we're currently working with who has been at our municipal shelter for quite some time. Here's a bit about her: "Brynn is nearly perfect aside from not living well with cats and kids. She is house trained, chatty (not barky--more like she'll harumph and whine and tell you she doesn't agree with you), gives the best kisses and has an adorably perfect snore. She does well loose and out of a crate. She does have allergies which make her care more expensive than the average dog's. She is currently taking apoquel daily and recently started cytopoint along with it. Brynn's monthly care has her in about the $175 range." This cost of care is out of reach for many folks. I'm curious how other organizations help defray these costs. We've been offering $1K grants to adoptive pet parents to help defray costs ongoing, but know that that is only a temporary solution. Are there ways to help folks who would be able to provide a great home for pets like Brynn? I know the solutions are out there and would love to hear how others approach issues like this.

FWH Associates, P.A. was having such a great time at the #CommunityLive #CAIkeystone conference and Expo on Thursday, that we did not highlight #NationalPetDay! National Pet Day is dedicated to celebrating pets and acknowledging the joy they bring to our lives. It also serves to elevate awareness about the unending needs of pets, especially those in shelters, and to encourage adoption. Recognized across America, this day invites people to reflect on the value and positive influence pets have in our lives, such as reducing stress, encouraging physical activity, and fostering social connections. For many American families, pets are considered full-fledged members, and this day represents an occasion to show appreciation for their companionship and loyalty. Celebrating National Pet Day often involves activities that honor pets and tangibly demonstrate love for them. These typically include special treats or meals, extended playtimes, additional cuddles, or even a new toy. Pet adoption events and charity fundraisers for rescue organizations also peak during this period, emphasizing responsible pet ownership and care. National Pet Day is observed annually on April 11, serving as a reminder of the joy and enrichment pets bring into our lives while underlining the importance of their care and welfare. Facts about National Pet Day • Having a pet in the home can reduce a child's likelihood of developing related allergies by as much as 33 percent. • Dogs have almost 220 million smell-detecting cells, compared to the mere 5 million in humans. • The most popular pets among U.S. households in 2023 were: 1) Dog – 69 million 2) Cat – 45 million 3) Freshwater Fish – 11 million 4) Bird – 9 million 5) Reptile – 6 million Show us pictures of your pets!! #TeamFWH #FWHassociates #PetDay2024 #FurryFriends #ReptilePets #GoForaWalk #LovePets #Therapeutic #ShowUsYourPets

On National Pet Day, it's a time to celebrate our beloved furry companions and acknowledge the joy and comfort they bring into our lives. Whether you have a loyal dog, a quirky cat, or a playful hamster, pets play a significant role in many households worldwide. This special day serves as a reminder to show appreciation for the unconditional love and companionship that pets provide. National Pet Day is not just about pampering our pets with treats and toys; it's also a time to raise awareness about responsible pet ownership. This includes providing proper nutrition, regular exercise, and veterinary care to ensure our pets live happy and healthy lives. Additionally, it's essential to consider adoption from shelters or rescue organizations to give homeless animals a second chance at a loving home. Statistics show that pet ownership has numerous benefits for both physical and mental health. Studies have shown that owning a pet can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and increase overall happiness. Pets can also improve social interactions and provide a sense of purpose and companionship for individuals of all ages. So, on National Pet Day, take some time to celebrate the bond you share with your furry friend. Whether it's going for a walk in the park, cuddling on the couch, or simply spending quality time together, cherish the moments you have with your pet. Let's make every day a special day for our pets and show them the love and care they deserve. #nationalpetday #dogs #lovealldogs #virtualassistant #boxerlab #love #alldogs

Seeing your beloved pet nearing the end of their life can bring about a flood of emotions. It's natural to worry about their comfort and pain during this time. If you’re considering pet euthanasia, there are several steps you can take to ensure a peaceful process: 👨⚕️ Consult with your veterinarian to receive expert advice and guidance. 👪 Discuss your plans with your family members, as this decision will also affect them. 🤝🏽 Seek out others who have made the same choice for their pets, as they can offer valuable insights and support. 🌈 Make arrangements with a pet cremation service provider to ensure your furbaby receives a dignified farewell as they journey across the Rainbow Bridge. 🕊️ Find resources for grief support to help you navigate through this challenging time, such as therapy, online support groups, and local community organisations. By following these steps, you can provide your furbaby with the care and support they deserve in their final moments while also prioritising your own well-being. #petangelfunerals #goldcoastpetcremation #petaftercare
