For those of us time-trapped by the daily constraints of work, Dr. Steve Sanderlin offers a great alternative to driving your pet to the vet….he comes to your house!  His veterinarian practice is called Home Instead Veterinary Care and he services the following counties in the Denver & Boulder Area. From his website: http://homeinsteadvetcare.com/ 

We are excited to offer quality, affordable, dedicated mobile veterinary care for the Colorado Front Range in Boulder, Broomfield, Adams, Jefferson, and southern Larimer and Weld counties!!!

Dr. Steve Sanderlin conveniently provides quality, professional, caring veterinary services in the comfort of your home. This allows your companion pet(s) to be more at ease and relaxed while being examined and treated with a caring, gentle manner in their own environment.

Home Instead Veterinary Care will be taking delivery of a 25 ft. Dodgen Mobile Veterinary Hospital with state-of-the-art surgical, dental, laboratory, and xray equipment.

Oh, and did we mention he plays the guitar?  Maybe he’ll sing for your dog or cat a song during his visit.

The best part is how easy it is to use! The cap unscrews from the top of the bottle and turns into a small bowl that your dog can drink of water whenever they want! They also offer a ton of different colors too – my favorite is the lime-green one.

Hiking and Running:

When out hiking, I normally carry at least a Nalgene (or other water bottle) filled with water especially for Koda. If it is a longer hike I will bring more water because he is a big German Shepherd/Husky and needs a lot of water when it’s hot because of his heavy coat. Also, I like to try to plan my hikes and runs near some type of stream so that he can jump in and cool off.

When I’m running I tend to not carry things so if it’s really hot I will make sure to run in shaded areas with creeks or lakes nearby.

Climbing:

When I’m climbing I have the luxury of carrying a lot because I have a huge backpack full of gear already. Normally, I’ll bring a collapsible fabric dog bowl (like this one from RuffWear) and a big umbrella if it is somewhere I know it’s going to be really exposed during the day. I also like to bring along a KONG toy with some peanut butter in it to keep him entertained while we’re climbing.

Keep in mind that our furry buddies can also get over-exhausted, dehydrated and even experience heat stroke – just like us. If you see any of symptoms like excessive panting, drooling, mild weakness, or stupor then your pet is too hot! Take steps to help them feel better by finding some shade for them to rest or some water for them to wade in.

Also, don’t forget to have fun!

They only sell all-natural foods and are all about taking care of their customers with excellent customer service. We like that. If you would like to support them, they also have an online store at WylieWagg.com

We’re big fans of all three and welcome them into our Organic Pet Superfood family!

Over the past year or so we have been working really hard on getting some great new products to you as well as redesigning our packaging and website… We really hope you like our new stuff!

More to come!
