Special hours for the 4th!

Hi Puppy Parents! We wanted to be sure and let all of you know that there will be no pick-ups or drop-offs on Sunday, July 4th. The boarded pups will still be having a day of play and 4th of July fun with the other boarded pups and the people, there will just be no picking up and dropping off. The people can give more attention and time to the pups that way. Saturday, July 3rd and Monday, July 5th will be regular daycare days, so if you have picnics or days at the lake planned for those days why not bring your pup on over so they can have their own fun?! Happpy 4th of July, Everybody!

Showing the Ropes

We've had a bunch of new puppies at All Wags recently. Isn't that fantastic? These pups are not only new to All Wags, they are new to being pups. It's so great for them to get to come to All Wags because they have plenty of older pups to look out for them and show them the ropes of being a pup. Did you know that pups learn best from each other? If you see an older pup kind of putting their mouth over a younger pups mouth, that's all good, they are just giving them a little correction, teaching them something they maybe don't know, like don't bark. How best for a young pup to learn these sorts of things that from other pups. Such great togetherness for the pups! Here Rosie is telling one of the new pups, Pepsi, all about what goes on at All Wags and how much fun they are going to have together!

Kisses, Kisses!

Selwyn is such a loved pup that she always has a kiss on her face! Every morning when her mama drops her off, she gets a big lipstick-y smacker right on her nose. She plays all day with her puppy friends with that sweet kiss on her face and we at All Wags love being reminded of all that love between Selwyn and her mama. Can't you see it right there on her cute little nose? Isn't that just the best!? We love knowing how much all of our All Wags pups are loved! We certainly love them all too!

I ain't afraid of no storms... um, yes, I am!

We have had some pretty incredible summer storms of recent, thunder and lightening like you wouldn't believe! And, all of the dogs seem to react a little differently. Some aren't phased in the least bit. It's like nothing is going on. Some want to bark at it and attack the storm. Those sweet ones want to save us all from the storms, thanks little heroes! And still some others and just plain afraid of the storms, like really afraid. Our little pal Maynard here is one of those types of pups. This little man has found quite a tucked away hiding spot on one of our storage shelves. I hope he was feeling all safe and secure like the storm wouldn't be able to penetrate his fortress. At least summer storms are usually quick!

Summertime Fun!

Man, was it hot today! Right? We had a lot of great summertime fun at All Wags today. Mrs. Mosby and Izzy were having a fabulous time playing a game of chase today. Can't you just see how fast and hard those two pretty girls were running!? They were having an absolute blast. Mrs. Mosby had a little bit of minor surgery about a week and a half ago and today was her first day of really getting to play at All Wags after recovering, and, let me tell you, that girl didn't stop today. She was making up for lost time! After the running, Miss Izzy had to take a relaxing little snooze in the baby pool. How about that for some relaxation? She actually fell asleep in the pool! Don't you just want to join her? Ahhhh... Summer...

The Stop Sign Puppy Deserves a Second Chance

This adorable, sweet girl was found tied to a stop sign! Can you even believe it?! In this heat, this beautiful girl is just so lucky that our Maria came along and untied her and brought her to All Wags. She deserves a second chance! Is that second chance you? She is a nice medium size, weighing about 30 pounds. Just today, she went to Southpark Animal Hospital to see Dr. Keri and got all up to date on her shots. We are working on getting her spayed and then she will be good to go! This pup has a way of looking into your eyes and crawling straight into your heart. Have you seen that commercial about how a shelter dog was dealt a bad hand and responded with courage? Well, I would say that applies to Stop Sign puppies as well. So, who wants to adopt this amazing dog. You won't be sorry you did! She is a very sweet, smart girl and is just waiting for you to give her a name and a great forever home! Until then, she is the Stop Sign Puppy and she is living at All Wags waiting to meet her new family and have her second chance.
