It’s that time of year again!

Time for hot dogs, apple pie, and–for some pups and their parents–those dreaded fireworks. For many dog owners, the next two weeks are the worst time of the year, as many start setting off noisemakers early. Here are a few tips to help your dog (and you!) survive the upcoming revelry.

So the day is finally here. Two weeks ago, you were promised a cat on your birthday if you behaved well. So, congratulations for not doing anything that got you grounded! 

With your heart pounding, you take that little bowl of fur in the palm of your hands, dreaming about all the adventures you are going to go on with it in the passenger seat with a hat on its head as you head for Mexico, becoming an internet sensation by teaching it crazy and genius tricks no other cat on the planet has ever accomplished, take your cat to the cat Olympics, or better dress it up for fashion shows for the showstopper in citers like Singapurr, Mew York, Purrlin and Mexico Kitty.  

Not only is owning a dog a privilege; it is also a big responsibility. It exclusively depends on the owner for a place, food and shelter, kind of like the 27-year old Adam who won’t move out of his parent’s house.  

But sadly, unlike Adam, the owner has to housetrain the dog to take its business outside when it’s poop time. No matter what anyone says, housetraining a dog doesn’t have to be a stressful job. Dogs are fast learners and you don’t need to spend any more time than needed to properly train them to excuse themselves for their bathroom breaks.
