Gardening enthusiasts, take note! Before you begin planting flower beds or brightening up your home with a vase of flowers, make sure they’re safe for your dog. Please read Five Things Pet Owners Should Know Before Planting Spring Gardens or review this comprehensive list of plants toxic to dogs compiled by the ASPCA. Both articles are excellent resources to check out before you dig in to spring planting!

“She’s not just changed my life…she’s saved my life.” This quote from Army Command Sgt.-Maj. Gretchen Evans about her service dog, Aura, brought tears to my eyes. For a glimpse into Gretchen’s journey, please watch this dog news story and video: Army Sergeant Tells Megyn Kelly How Her Service Dog Changed Her Life. What a profound impact service dogs like Aura have in helping heroes like Gretchen live a full life.
