Our canine companions bring so much joy to our lives. If you have been considering adding a new pet to your family, now is a great time to do so, as October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month.

September is Happy Healthy Cat Month, an opportunity to shine a spotlight on all of the ways we can help our cats live a long and fulfilling life.
