We all look forward to this weekend – kind of a mid-point of summer- when we can kick back and really celebrate. But for dogs – all of this carrying on may not be such a good thing. SarasotaDog talked with Cheryl Brady of VetCare Express for some ideas to ensure that everyone in the family has a great 4th.
Start the day off right with a romp in the park early with your dog.

For our money, nothing beats a Kong Toy stuffed with creamy peanut butter – and then frozen for a few hours. This cold and yummy treat keeps our dog busy for at least an hour.
There are other neat toys out there too, like the Talk to Me Treatball. This plastic ball has has a chip that lets you record something, like “Good Dog Scout!” or “night night”. But! if you have a big dog, a chewer or a puppy – this toy should only be used with supervision – and for Separation Anxiety – no good. Stick with the KONG.
There are lots of dog treat recipes out there that include fillers like cornmeal.
Some dogs are becoming allergic to corn because they’re getting too much of it in a lot of commercial dog food as a primary ingredient!
Bake healthy, homemade dog goodies and skip the corn.
