Guess the Nose 👃🐾

🚨 EXPERT LEVEL 🚨

This week’s Guess the Nose is a really tough one. In fact, we’re featuring a breed you don’t see every day!

Here are your clues:

🐾 This breed originated in England and was originally bred to hunt vermin.

🐾 Despite its elegant, almost delicate appearance, this is a terrier.

🐾 That soft, curly coat can make this dog look almost like a little lamb. 🐑

🐾 The breed is known for its distinctive topknot, arched back and very unique silhouette.

🐾 They’re intelligent, spirited and surprisingly athletic.

🐾 And here’s your rare-breed clue: according to the AKC’s 2025 registration rankings, this breed came in at #147 out of 202 recognized breeds in popularity. That puts it firmly in “you probably don’t see one every day” territory!

So… WHAT BREED IS THIS? 👀

Drop your guesses below! No Googling. I’ll reveal the answer later! 😏

🐾GUESS THE NOSE🐾

Let’s see who can figure this one out.

Here are your clues:

I was originally bred to retrieve game for hunters.

I love the water and was bred to be an excellent swimmer.

I have a beautiful, flowing coat that can range from pale cream to a rich golden color.

Fetch is basically my favorite sport.

I’m known for being friendly, loyal, eager to please, and very people-oriented.

I’m a pretty big dog with a big heart and an even bigger appetite.

So, what breed am I?

Ferrets may be small, but their personalities are huge. 🦦

These curious little creatures love to explore, play, and get into a little bit of trouble. They thrive with enrichment, social interaction, and plenty of opportunities to use their natural instincts.

Do you have a ferret at home? We’d love to hear about them!

Wellness Wednesdays:

A healthy weight isn’t just about how a dog looks. It can have a big impact on how they age. ❤️

Keeping dogs at a healthy body condition can reduce stress on their joints, make movement easier, and help support their overall health as they get older.

One of the best things we can do for our dogs’ longevity is actually pretty simple: feed appropriate portions, keep treats in check, and make sure they get regular opportunities to move.

And remember, every dog is different. A healthy weight for a tiny senior Chihuahua is going to look very different from a healthy weight for a young Labrador.

Those extra few pounds can be easy to overlook, especially when we see our dogs every day. Regular weight checks and conversations with your veterinarian can help catch changes before they become a bigger problem.

A longer life is wonderful. A longer life where your dog can comfortably run, play, climb stairs and enjoy the things they love is even better.

It can be hard to ignore puppy eyes but maybe go for an extra walk instead of giving an extra treat.

Cats are experts at hiding what they need. 🐱

Unlike dogs, many cats don’t always show obvious signs when something is bothering them. Small changes like sleeping more, hiding, eating less, skipping the litter box, or becoming less social can be their way of telling us something is wrong.

Regular wellness visits, keeping an eye on their habits, and noticing the little changes can make a big difference. Cats are masters at subtle communication, and the people who know them best are usually the first to notice.

A happy, healthy cat is one that feels safe, loved, and understood. ❤️

What is one funny or unique habit your cat has that makes them completely themselves?

Just a reminder that you are very, very cute. 🐶❤️That’s it. That’s the post.

👃🐾 Guess the Nose! 🐾👃

Time for another round!

Can you identify this pup from just their snoot?

Here are a few clues:

This breed is consistently ranked among the most intelligent dog breeds.

They’re famous for an intense, almost hypnotic stare that’s used to control livestock.

They were originally bred to herd sheep across rugged countryside.

They have endless energy and thrive when they have a job to do.

They’re stars in agility, Frisbee, obedience, and just about any dog sport you can think of.

Their loyalty and eagerness to work make them incredible partners for active families.

🐱 Happy International Cat Day! 🐱

Today is a pretty good excuse to celebrate the cats who make us laugh, keep us company, knock things off the counter, and somehow convince us that everything they do is completely reasonable. 😂

We’re pretty lucky to spend our days caring for these quirky, independent, lovable little creatures. Give your cat an extra treat (or 12) today! ❤️

A tired dog is a happy dog… but exercise is about so much more than just burning off energy. 🐾

Walks, playtime, sniffing adventures, and exploring new places help dogs stay healthy in their bodies and their minds. Sniffing a new trail, chasing a favorite toy, or playing with friends gives dogs a chance to be curious, confident, and engaged.

Just like us, every dog is different. Some pups love a long hike, while others are happiest with a leisurely stroll and plenty of time to sniff every interesting smell along the way. The goal isn’t perfection, it’s finding the kind of movement that makes your dog’s tail wag.

One of our favorite things is watching dogs leave with that “I had the best day” look after getting to play, explore, and just be a dog. ❤️

What’s your dog’s favorite way to get moving?
