July News

Summer is full swing and we are spending lots of time outdoors with our pets. There's plenty of activities to enjoy, from walking and hiking, playing ball or heading off to the beach. Some dogs, especially the "water breeds" such as retrievers, love to swim and play in the water but others are more fearful. Some experts think this is a predisposition for certain breeds, but others feel it is because the dog has had a bad experience or simply doesn't know what water is. For tips on helping your pooch overcome a fear of water, check out the Responsible Pet Owners blog from Canidae pet foods. 

Dogs aren't the only ones who get to have summer fun! Our kitties enjoy summer living too! For a few tips on making your cat's summer both fun and safe, take a look at this article from Hills Science Diet. It has suggestions for both outdoor and indoor cats.

This summer, the Lakeport Rainbow store is hosting once-a-month small livestock swap meets in the parking lot of the store on Argonaut Road south of Lakeport. The next swap meet will take place on July 24. The last swap had turkeys, chickens, rabbits, goats and ducks! It's a great place to trade small livestock and supplies. For more information contact the Lakeport store at 279 0550.

Pet adoption events - the Milo Foundation is now bringing cats and dogs available for adoption to the Ukiah Rainbow store on Thursdays from 3 PM to 5 PM.

The Rainbow staff loves pets - Outdoor Power Equipment specialist Vinny Tinto is fostering a cat from the Milo Foundation - a special guy named Marley.
