Busy training this week, so doubling up on organic preventative AND fertilizer!

Coffee grounds can be used for initial pest control, including fleas and ticks. The strong scent of coffee is off-putting to many insects, including fleas and ticks, so using coffee grounds can help deter them.

I will be following up with 100% Organic All-Natural Food grade Diamateous Powder to spray around the kennel, kennel eves, house perimeter.

I use decaffeinated coffee grounds, just in case, as caffeine is not good for animals.
I create an approximate 2” barrier around the outside kennel building, around the perimeter of the house, shake it around the plants.

From a fertilizer aspect, coffee grounds contain nutrients like nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus, which are beneficial for plant growth, as well as help improve soil structure and drainage.

Middle TN Friends, this year we will be volunteering with Wreaths Across America to help lay wreaths and participate in the wreath ceremony at Middle Tennessee State Veterans Cemetery.
If you feel so inclined to join and/or to donate wreaths, I know they would be very grateful.
If not in Middle TN, check out organizations in your area.

Wreaths Across America ("WAA") coordinates wreath-laying ceremonies every December to "Remember, Honor, and Teach" about the sacrifices made by our veterans and their families.

If you walk your dog, please be aware of not only the temp and heat index, but you must also check the temp of the ground you walk your dog on. The temperature of a sidewalk can be too hot for dogs if it's above 85°F and can't cool down. On an 85°F Day, concrete can heat up to 105°F and asphalt to 130°F. At 125°F, a dog's paw can burn in as little as 60 seconds, and even faster if it's hotter.

To test if the sidewalk is safe for your dog, you can try the "seven-second rule": Place the back of your hand on the pavement and see if you can hold it there for at least seven seconds. If you can't, the sidewalk is too hot for your dog.

Here are some other tips to keep your dog's paws safe from hot pavement:
• Walk your dog early in the morning (before 10 AM) or late at night (after 7 PM) when the pavement is cooler.
• Avoid walking your dog during the hottest parts of the day, like in the afternoon when the sun is high.
• Stay on the grass and stick to shady areas instead of sidewalks or paved areas.
• Check your dog's paw pads daily for signs of damage and wash their paws often.
