Dogs strut stuff on signs in Englewood to promote mission of service

By 3dogs on Monday, March 18th, 2013 | 25 Comments

Dogs on billboards.

They are coming soon to Englewood thanks to a $ 75,000 donation to the Freedom Service Dogs of America from Denver-based Pure Bran Communications.

The money, won in a competition, will be used in a marketing campaign to raise awareness about Freedom Service’s mission of turning rescued dogs into service dogs for the disabled.

The campaign features some of the nonprofit’s dogs on billboards, buses and bus shelters and at dog parks, encouraging people to donate so the group can find more dogs for the program.

Q&A: Why do service members need to print their SSN on their ID tags?

By 3dogs on Tuesday, December 11th, 2012 | 11 Comments

Question by Glutton 4 Punishment: Why do service members need to print their SSN on their ID tags?
I’m ordering some military style dog tags since they’re much cheaper than the fancy ones from the local pharmacy (which are literally 6 times the price) and the format currently used supposedly has the SSN printed right on it. Seems counter intuitive since lost dog tags could mean identity theft here on U.S. soil, right? So does anybody know why the SSN is used?
Not like I have to worry about it, I’m not in the service due to medical reasons. It’s just curiosity.

Does Petsmart have dog obedience training and nail clipping service?

By 3dogs on Wednesday, June 6th, 2012 | 8 Comments

Question by Shaq iz Phat: Does Petsmart have dog obedience training and nail clipping service?
Does Petsmart have dog obedience training? How effective would it be for a 2 month old Australian Shephard that is out of control. He loves to turn over water bowls (it’s 110 degrees here), jump other dogs and cats. Goes to the bathroom inside the house and tears apart everything.

Oh and how much does it cost?

How much is nail clipping for a small Chihuahua?

A reader asked..
I have a 100 lb Lab that sheds like crazy and although my GF loves the dog, she doesn’t the hair that builds up in my house, week to week. The local Petsmart offers a Furminator grooming service – I’m curious how long this helps eliminate shedding? Also, if I buy my own Furminator, how often should I brush out my dog with the tool to keep lots of fur out of the house?

I train dogs and help people find the breed that suits their lifestyle. I give information on good locations to obtain a dog [breeder, shelter] and how to care, etc. But this service is mainly about training and pet finding.
