Guest Post from DogHelpNetwork.com on Ear Infections!

Great info from our friends and contributers at DogHelpNetwork.com about a problem many of us pup parents deal with...ear infections. Being a Spaniel father, I know firsthand how important proper ear care and treatment is. Isabella has had her fair share of ear infections and we are always looking for more ways to avoid and treat them.  

Every dog has a natural balance of yeast and bacteria inside the ear canal. Sometimes, an overgrowth of bacteria can cause infection. Dog ear infections, also known as Otisis, can affect the inner, middle or outer ear.

Rover's Makeovers! Rover Oaks Pet Resort, Taking Homeless Pups from Bow to Wow!

 

The pup-tastic grooming staff at Rover Oaks Pet Resort in Katy are helping animals from Citizens for Animal Protection (CAP) go from bow to wow by providing weekly doggie makeovers for two lucky CAP dogs each Wednesday. Both pups also receive a free grooming certificate from Rover Oaks Katy so their new adoptive parents can continue to keep them looking their best! 

 

This week our makeovers feature Benji, a 3 year old terrier mix, and Melvin, a 6 year old poodle.

Meet Benji BEFORE His Rover’s Makeover!
