This Fourth of July we celebrate freedom & independence.

That’s why we’re called to lead with science, advocate for animal welfare, and use our voices to help the pets who can’t speak [...]

Breathing is life & oxygen is not optional & we all share a duty to help pets & people recognize suffering. In short nosed breeds like Frenchies, English Bulldogs, Pugs, Boston Terriers, Pekingese, Pomeranians, & even mixed breeds although struggling to breathe may seem common, it’s never normal. We must notice the signs— noisy breathing, [...]
