Dogtown: Meet Sparky and Rusko
Summer holidays are here and the living is easy, unless it is the Fourth of July and you are a cat or a dog. The Fourth and the days before and after can be a pretty traumatic time for your pets. It’s always a good idea to review a few safety tips about now. The…
Dogtown: Olive and Scout are low drama, yet eager – no assembly required!
I get a lot of questions regarding whether people are returning their COVID pups now that life is returning to some semblance of normal. I am happy to report that that is not the case.

A litter of seven six-month-old shepherd and cattle dog mix puppies were abandoned (sounds a little nicer than “dumped”) on Cock Robin Island in Loleta about a month ago. So far five have been caught and brought to safety at the shelter.…
