Rover's Rest Stop & Ranch

Rover's Rest Stop & Ranch Matchmaking Adoptions of small dogs. Boarding and pet sitting. Accepts owner turn in of small dogs Thank you.

Rover’s Rest Stop began as a small dog rescue in the Chandler area more than 10 years ago. We work with small dogs, matchmaking our “Kids” to the perfect home based on lifestyle, activity level and personal needs. What is different about Rovers is that we support the new adopted family and are available throughout the “Kid’s” lifetime. We ensure all vaccinations, microchip, spay/neuter, basic trai

ning etc., are completed prior to the adoption. You can view the available dogs for adoption and the application at www.roversreststop.com. We also offer pet sitting, most all of our adopted “Kids” come back to camp. We operate on a holistic/natural basis with fresh foods, fresh air and lots of exercise. We focus on one-on-one attention, socializing, and fun events in a crate free environment. We love and welcome Ambassadors for the Kids, if you are interested in helping at one of our events, please contact us at [email protected].

Rover's Kids say no to dog parks for a reason. However, they hear all the time about dogs fighting and those that get hurt. They also hear of dogs charging them while on a walk. They are sharing this video to keep you safe and give you techniques to separate and save lives. Please share this, the more that know and have knowledge the better for all. Hug those necks!

Rover's Kids love real food and if you rotate and include all parts of the protein animal with good fats like coconut you can do better than kibble. Hug those necks! Keep them healthy!

Rover's Kids cheer me on every day - they want better for all the cousins out there! We are reminded daily the belief exists that we are being told the truth and should believe in anyone wearing a white coat or stethoscope not to mention the government agencies. PLEASE, for your own safety and well-being as well as your pets, read, research, verify every product and claim.

Rover's Kids have said no to Fresh Pet since it came out - mold in the middle, unsafe ingredients with lots of garlic to cover the odor and mask the taste. Of course we say no to dry food that is filled with dead, dying, diseased ingredients... just took to the billions of dollars being made by the big companies - why do you think they make dog/cat food - cheap ingredients and huge profit margins. The FDA and AAFCO cover for them - for human and pet food regulations.

Thank you to Susan Thixton for trudging forward in the battle to keep our Kids safe. Thank you to the better food companies for stepping forward to protect our Kids.

Rover's Kids told me to post this as they know that some people even store the food in the garage - at 100+ degrees in the summer! Rover's Kids prefer real food with a little kibble when absolutely necessary. Yes, it matters! just like the biofilm in the water bowl.

Rover's Kids thought this was interesting to share. Someone has put on a thinking cap to help end the puppymill cruelty. Sad it takes one step at a time to accomplish. Hug those necks!

SEE YOU ALL AT THE ST PATRICK'S DAY MEET & GREET! NEED MORE INFORMATION - 480-600-2828

Behind the cute pet shop windows, tiny puppies were quietly suffering—bred in cages and sold like stock while families thought they were buying joy. Today, New York has cut off that cruelty by shutting down the puppy mill pipeline and choosing animals over profit. Under the new rules, pet stores can no longer sell dogs, cats, or rabbits from large commercial breeders; instead, they must partner with shelters and rescues so every animal has a chance at a real home. Signed by Governor Kathy Hochul and fully implemented in 2024, this law is a major milestone for animal welfare in the state. It means fewer exhausted mother dogs locked in breeding cages, fewer sick and under‑aged puppies shipped out for sale, and thousands more rescue animals finally finding love instead of loneliness. When the law stands on the side of empathy, the system of cruelty starts to crumble.​

Rover's Kids know about this and wanted to share so everyone can stay healthy.  The Kids are getting ready for Saturday!...

Supporting Pets with Liver Disease — and Protecting Healthy Livers🐶🐱

Dogs and cats can lose up to 70% of their liver function before showing symptoms. That means subtle changes like mildly elevated ALT, bile sludge, rising bilirubin, or gallbladder dysfunction may appear long before a pet looks sick.

One of the liver supporting supplements you should have in your toolbox - Milk thistle (silymarin) has been studied for its ability to:
• Protect liver cells from damage
• Support regeneration of injured hepatocytes
• Reduce oxidative stress
• Help normalize elevated liver enzymes

When the liver is under stress, this herb can provide powerful hepatoprotective support.

💊For healthy pets, milk thistle is often pulsed during periods of increased liver stress (medications, anesthesia, pesticide exposure). Typical dosing is 5–10 mg/kg/day for dogs and 2–5 mg/kg/day for cats (standardized silymarin).

Today at 12pm EDT we’re discussing the hidden liver and gallbladder issues more and more pets are facing, what bloodwork is really telling us, and the supplements you can use early to support liver health.

⬇️Plus download our Liver Support Cheat Sheet with protocols and dosages for pets dealing with a variety of liver and gallbladder conditions in the Inside Scoop group files.
