Doctor’s dog park in Apopka, Florida picture gallery

Doctor's dog park in Apopka, Florida picture gallery

A few months ago I was up at the Doctor’s dog park in Apopka for the Canine cancer awareness pet event. It was the very first time I had been there and frankly I was amazed at how big and beautiful this dog park is!

I decided to take a lot of pictures of this park and made a nice photo gallery below so you can really see what this park is all about. I made sure to take pictures of all the details like water fountains, time out areas, benches and more.

Now Doctor’s dog park in Apopka is not just one big area but a total of three different fenced in areas for dogs. One is for small dogs 30 pounds and under.

Another area is for all dogs, so I guess that is where you go if you have a large dog plus those who don’t mind having their small dog around larger dogs.

The other section I’m not sure about. It may be for large dogs but there is no sign saying so. I saw a mix of dogs in there the day I was there. If you know the answer to this please comment on here! :)

As you can see in the pictures Doctor’s dog park has some very nice shady trees in each section, with both sandy and grassy areas. You can find water fountains that are for both people and dogs with a low fountain area for the dogs.

You can find doggy waste bags at several spots to pick up after your dog, which is required and just plan common good manners. The entrances have double gates to help keep the dogs in.

You can also find doggy time out areas in case your dog gets too excited or you need to put them in a safe spot in case something happens. I took pictures of the rules posted on the fence also.

Total size of all the Doctor’s dog park area is about 5 acres, which is pretty big. There is plenty of room to let your dog run around and have fun. For a map and more info see my Doctor’s dog park review in the dog park page. Enjoy the pictures!

Bad breath in dogs drops from Pet Wellbeing
Check out dog bad breath drops from Pet Wellbeing today!

Most people like to get close to their dogs, giving them kisses and hugs. But if your dog happens to have bad breath that can be a real problem. Dog bad breath can be mild to really bad.

However you can treat bad breath in dogs so that they don’t have an odor. In fact if your dog does have bad breath it’s often a sign of something wrong that should be fixed.

So just what does cause dog bad breath? Often it’s a case of plaque build-up on their teeth. Other causes are periodontal disease, tooth decay, bacterial infections and other mouth problems.

Chews Naturally, local pet treats shop

January 29, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Orlando area pet treats shop

Today I’d like to spotlight another local healthy pet treats shop, called Chews Naturally. They have a great online store where you can buy their many tasty pet treats from.

Do you ever put much thought into what you’re feeding your dog? Many dog owners are getting pretty savvy about the ingredients in the pet food they buy, but they might completely ignore the ingredients in their dog’s treats and chews.

If you’re picky about your pet’s food, shouldn’t you be just as selective when it comes to other things your pooch will ingest? The answer is a resounding “yes”!

Holistic animal healing solutions

If you’re a devoted pet owner, your pet’s health and well-being is very important to you. You probably take your furry friend to a traditional veterinarian for health problems and for regular wellness checkups.

Perhaps, however, you’ve thought about other options that might be available, like holistic medicine, for example. If you’re in Central Florida, you’re in luck. Dr. Deneen Fasano at Animal Healing Solutions provides several different types of holistic medicine for pets.

Dr. Fasano has a degree in Veterinary Medicine from the University of Minnesota School of Veterinary Medicine, and she worked for two years with a traditional vet. She became interested in holistic methods, however, and in 2001, she earned her certificate in veterinary acupuncture.

Happy New Year, keep your pets safe from fireworks!

December 31, 2011 By Leave a Comment

Tonight is New Years Eve, so I wanted to wish everyone a happy new year! :D I hope your holidays are going well and hope that you have a safe new years eve, whatever you may be doing.

Myself, I’m not much of a party person and even less of a crowd type! So I’m going to spend new years eve at home, listening to the fireworks everyone around me shoots off.

I live right on a lake so I am sure there will be fireworks going off over that. My cat however hates the noise fireworks makes, so she will be slinking off under the bed I’m sure.

It’s been a pretty good year for me, all things considered. I started up a few new websites, I have around 3 dozen now. I can still work from home, making my living off my sites.
