Build a Better Lollypop!

Yesterday May 17th Lollypop Farm had the ground breaking ceremony on their new $4.5 million expansion! Lollypop Farm is the best humane society in our area and will soon be in the big leagues along with Best Friends Animal Society in Utah, and Dumb Friends League in Colorado.

This expansion will have a huge effect on the Rochester community. The building will be expanded to include additional training space for dogs, a much needed enlarged veterinary clinic, horse training facility, upgrades to the farm walk to make it more accessible for strollers & wheelchairs, and additional cattaries.

I am excited to see the changes to come at Lollypop and the positive effects they will have on our community.

$4.5 Million is needed for this expansion, $3.2 Million has been raised so far! Donate Here!

Spectra Sure w/IGR Flea Meds

I work on the website http://www.duboisdistributors.com/ they added new flea control products and I just bought some for Peanut & Bailey. Spectra Sure w/IGR has the same ingredients as Frontline Plus but is only about 1/2 the price! I looked online and a three pack for the same size of Fronline Plus sells for $40 - $46. I bought this at Dubois for $21.47 with free shipping. I'm so glad there is now a resonable flea control medicine that actually works. This protects against ticks as well which is a growing concern in our area. We do sometimes go for walks in the woods. 
They also have a cat version. I will be buying that soon since all 3 of my cats go outside.

Peanut wins!

Peanut won 3 ribbons today at the Flyball tournament! The first ribbon was for Flyball dog 20 points. The second was for receiving 100 points for the title of Flyball dog excellent! The dogs earn points by how fast the team runs in each heat. If the team runs under 25 seconds each dog earns 25 points, 28 seconds each dog earns 5 points, 32 seconds each dog earns 1. Peanuts 3rd ribbon was for being a rescue dog, the judges picked a few of their favorite rescue dogs that ran. I was disappointed there weren't more rescue dogs there.

Fetch n Fly Flyball Tournament

Peanut and Big Peanut~ Both rescues they look so much alike!

Peanut was in her first official Flyball tournament this weekend in Henrietta. It was a small tournament but it was still loud enough for me! All those dogs in one place can get pretty crazy.
