Little Mama turns 2 years old today!!! For her birthday she is looking for a new family. This precious and spunky 7lb gal is looking for an active family that will give her an outlet for her playful energy. She is friendly to all people and has never met a stranger, crate trained, potty trained and a true ray of sunshine little girl. Little Mama will often grab a toy and self entertain by throwing it in the air and playing "fetch" with herself when it goes flying across the room. She does best with a proper introduction to new dogs and can be a bit overwhelmed by rowdy large dogs but loves to play with other small/medium dogs that appreciate her energy. Little mama is very smart and quick to learn new tricks and could potentially enjoy light agility or other fun activities. It is unknown how she is with cats or children. Any further questions or information please text Katie at 216-496-0098. Strong preference will be given to current/previous clients of Heights Canine.

There will be no drop in daycare tomorrow, Monday, January 26th due to the frigid temperatures and snow storm. Safety is always our top priority for all and the risks involved with the upcoming weather is just too great to hold drop in daycare. Boarding dogs will be appropriately cared for and closely monitored. Boarding reservations will remain as scheduled. Stay safe and we look forward to seeing everyone on Tuesday!

Daycare will not be in session this upcoming week due to a sudden and unexpected staff medical emergency. Staff to dog ratios ensure safety for your four legged friends and our two legged team. Boarding reservations will remain unaffected. Day boarding will be available on a limited basis. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your continued support!

Skunk Alert!!!
A public service announcement from animal control:
February Through early March is skunk breeding season. Before you let your dogs out, make a little noise and give skunks time to move out of your yard.

If you come face to face with a skunk, stay calm and talk softly to let him know you’re there -- skunks have poor eyesight. Skunks are very sweet natured animals and don’t want to spray you. Go about your business and avoid startling them.
Skunks will give you several warnings if they are scared:
1. They will stomp their front feet
2. They turn their backs to you
3. They will do a handstand
4. They will spray up to 10 feet away

If a skunk DOES spray, here is a technique and recipe:
First, catch the dog (or the person!) as quickly as possible - don’t let them roll or rub on anything. If you have rubber gloves wear them. BLOT the spray off with paper towels.
Mix a paste from 1 teaspoon Dawn dish soap, 3% hydrogen peroxide and ¼ cup baking soda and spread it on the area. Do not add water! Let it sit for ten minutes then rinse off and repeat.
If this happens to be on a human or hairless animal, leave out the baking soda. The baking soda is sort of like an exfoliant and is really abrasive to bare skin.
Skunks are omnivores (eat both plant and animal material). They prefer to eat insects, particularly grasshoppers, beetles, and crickets. They also eat grubs and other insect larvae as well as bees and wasps. When the opportunity arises, they will take mice, rats, moles, shrews, young ground squirrels and rabbits, nesting birds, nestlings, and bird or snake eggs. Skunks also eat corn, berries, and other vegetation. In an urban environment, they may eat garbage or pet food that has been left outside.

Habitat Modification:
Secure garbage cans and close dumpster lids at night.
Control rodent populations.
Do not leave pet food outdoors at night.
Remove brush or wood piles.
Control lawn grubs.
