The dogs days of summer are here with little relief in sight. Keep your pooch well watered and watch out for paths, driveways and parking lots paved in asphalt. Did you ever try walking on sun-baked asphalt in your bare feet? Well now you know what it's like for your four-legged pal.

It's here, well almost, summer that is (in the northern hemisphere). With the hottest time of the year comes more time spent outside for you and your pooch. For city dwellers, watch out for your pooches pads on those hot days. Take longer walks or have play time early and/or late in the day. Mid-day heat is just as tough on your canine pal as it is on you.

Spring is here...well almost. If you live someplace in the northern hemisphere then you and your pooch are probably ready for warmer weather. If your pooch has taken it easy during the winter months, start her spring exercise program off slowly and work up to pre-winter activity levels because you may not be the only one who's put on a few winter pounds.

February brings us Valentine's Day and why not love your pooch on that special day and throughout the month by giving them a mid-winter tune up? Check out their teeeth (it is pet dental month ,too), give their nails a clip or two and don't forget to give them that long delayed bath. Because baths are good for your pooch all year round. Just be sure to use all natural products created for man's, or woman's, best friend.

Happy 2008! Check out lani - dig your dog on facebook! We've just set up our profile and would love to hear from you about what we should include.
Oh yeah, this month's tip. Just becauase it's cold in the northern hemisphere doesn't mean your pooch shouldn't look and smell good. Keep a good brush ,or steel comb, and our uber efective and great smelling body sprays handy to keep your pooch clean and looking and smelling good.

Partying with your pooch over the Holidays? Well you're not the only one that should look good. Our natural spa products are just what you need to keep your pooch fabulous looking and super huggable. (They may great gifts for the fellow dog diggers in your life too!) Too cold to bathe your best friend frequently? Try our BEACH, PARK or WOODS body sprays for those in between times.

'tis the season to be jolly. One of the most enjoyable things about the holidays is the food - lots of it. Though it's never great to feed your pooch table scraps, the temptation to do so may be greater during this time of the year. Don't do it. If the scraps are not good enough for you, why should they be OK for your best friend?

October is a great time to check out the fall foliage with your pooch at your side. However, don't forget to check your buddy for ticks when you get back home.
