What I am Doing This Week, July 2, 2010
Friday, July 2nd, 2010(If you don’t mind, imagine the next sentence fragments in the voice of Flint Lockwood, from Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs. You know I LOVE to be boring, but sometimes I love to SEEM exciting, so I thought maybe that would help. Thanks.)
Gathering! Restating! Linking! Helping! <running around the living room> <pushing big red button> Publishing!
I know it’s been said, but I just wanted to make sure you and your pets have all the resources you need for this Independence Day! So this week I am gathering and reposting information about storm and firework phobias. Add any tips or resources you have!
Scared on the Fourth of July - Last Year’s Posting With an Update
Shadow Lake Towne Center Pet Tips - July 2010
Thunderphobia - Trainer Eric Goebelbecker’s Great Posting on Dr. V’s Pawcurious Website
Fourth of July Fireworks Safety Tips for Your Pets - brand new article from Dr. Patrick Mahaney, Veterinarian and Certified Veterinary Acupuncturist
Thundershirts! - Too late to order them from the website for Sunday! And as you know, yahoos in Omaha are already shooting off fireworks, so the poor dogs are already pretty worked up. Nebraska Humane Society has some Thundershirts, but they are running low! Quick, go push someone out of the way and grab theirs. (Don’t really.)
Banfield, The Pet Hospital of Papillion 402-331-1108 If you need information or medication, call to make an appointment with your pet today or tomorrow before the weekend gets even crazier!
On a sort of related note, July 4-July 15, Banfield, The Pet Hospital is having a pet photo contest with an Independence Day theme. I am going to enter Fuzzy and Wuzzy Rats eating watermelon. So when I say GO, vote for Fuzzy and Wuzzy on Banfield’s facebook page. They would make a banner with their picture on it!! How awesome is that?? If you enter your pet, I will vote for him or her too, so let me know!
(July 4, 2010-”GO!” Thanks all!)
Happy Independence Day! Make sure your pet is with you or safe at home this weekend. Here’s to a safe and wonderful weekend for you and your family! God Bless America!
