Cleo is our Pet of the Week on Wet Nose Thursday

Kaitlin from the Humane Society visited today with Cleo the dog. Cleo is a 3 month old mixed breed puppy with the most adorable ears. She's a bit shy at first, but likes to snuggle once she gets to know you. She will be available for adoption soon.

Cold Weather Safety:

Winter in Michigan can be unpredictable, are you and your pets prepared for the snow, cold, and ice? Here are some tips from the ASPCA:

- Remember, if it’s too cold for you, it’s probably too cold for your pet! Keep animals inside during winter weather.

- Towel dry pets after a walk in the snow, and check paw pads for irritation or cracking. Look for ice between the toes, too!

- Avoid shaving pets' fur in the winter, as their coats are what keep them warm.

- Use a pet-safe ice melt when possible to avoid red, sore paws
