Looking for a fun holiday tradition for you pup? 🎄🐶

Dog-friendly advent calendars can be a fun daily ritual during the holidays, but ingredient checks are key. Look for simple, transparent ingredients and avoid anything you wouldn't feel good about feeding your doggo year-around.

A little daily treat, a lot of holiday joy 🐾✨

Wishing you and your furry family a warm and joyful Thanksgiving. 🍂✨

We hop your day is filled with good food, good company, and cozy moments with your pets (who are probably politely pretending they're not waiting for a bite).

Before the holiday cooking begins, here's a friendly reminder every pet parent should hear:

Xylitol is EXTREMELY TOXIC for dogs.

This sweetener is hiding in more foods than you'd think — peanut butter, sugar-free desserts, gum, mints, and even some baked goods around the table, even in tiny amounts, can be dangerous.

Cathy talked about this years ago on "If Your Pets Could Talk," and the message is still just as important today. So remember to keep the sweets high and your pups safe. 💖🐾

Did you know November is full of days that celebrate, support, and advocate for pets?

Take a moment this month to honor the pets in your life and those waiting for their forever homes. November is the perfect time to show our appreciation for the pets who bring us joy, laughter, and unconditional love.

Because whether it's donating to a local rescue, volunteering, or just giving your pets some extra belly rubs, every little action counts. 💖👏

Bri has moved her shop from Urbandale to Beaverdale. She and her crew donate a ton of after-hours time to emergency grooms for dogs coming into rescue, especially for Oh My Dog Rescue. So let's support a business that supports the less fortunate, who makes time and rallies the groomer community (yes, there is one and they're awesome) when it's desperately needed.

11/04/2025

November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month and older pets have plenty to give. 🐾❤️

When you adopt a senior pet, you’re giving them a second chance at a cozy home, warm naps, and endless affection. They’re calm, loyal, and already know the ropes of being the best companion.

Visit your local shelters or rescue groups this month — you might just meet your new best friend. 💕🐶🐱

Happy Howl-o-ween from all of us at the Great Iowa Pet Expo! 👻🐶🐱 We hope your day is full of treats, no tricks, and just the right amount of spooky fun.

Tag us in your pet’s costume — we’d love to see how your furry friend is celebrating! 🎃✨

Pumpkin spice season isn't just for humans. 🎃🐾

Your pets can join the fall flavor fun too — safely! Pumpkin, apples, and peanut butter (xylitol-free, of course) make great bases for homemade or store-bought pet treats.

Just remember to skip the sugary snacks and keep it simple with natural ingredients that taste great while also being gentle on their tummies. 🍎🐶🐱

(Did You Know?: A little plain pumpkin purée can be a tasty and healthy snack for your pet?)
