Wholesome Hide Chunkee Rawhide Treats – Just $3.99 a bag!

Did you know?: Chewing is a very natural, relaxing activity for dogs. It allows them to release pent-up energy, as well as maintain dental health by scraping off plaque. Whether young or old, make sure your dog has a healthy, appropriate option for satisfying their chewing needs. We like the Wholesome Hide line of rawhide chews. They are the only rawhides that are 100% made in the USA with 100% USA beefhide. The Wholesome Hide Chunkee Rawhides are a great choice for nighttime treats. Made of compressed rawhide, they are easy to chew, have less calories than a typical dog biscuit, and have added glucosamine for healthy hips! At just $3.99 a bag, they are great treats after a fun day of daycare!

Did you Know?

Human Medications Poisonous to Pets

We all worry about our pets getting into something that can be harmful to their health. We keep them away from rat poison, fertilizers, home toxins and even raisins - but do you know what the most common problem the Pet Poison Helpline receives calls for is? Over-the-counter and prescriptions medications for humans.

The top 10 most frequently ingested are:

  1. Non-steroid anti-inflammatories (Advil, Aleve, Motrin)
  2. Acetminophen (Tylenol)
  3. Antidepressants
  4. ADD/ADHD Medications (Adderall, Ritalin)
  5. Sleep Aids (Ambien, Lunesta etc)
  6. Birth Control
  7. ACE Inhibitors (Zesril, Altace)
  8. Beta-blockers (Tenormin Toprol, Coreg)
  9. Thyroid Hormones
  10. Cholesterol lowering agents

As reminder, keep all medications out of reach not only from your kids, but your fur-kids too!

Barkimonial

Out of the mouth of Toby

ARFF! ARFF! BOW-BOW! HOLLOWWWWW!

 


I love Dioji Athletic Club! It is the only place that my mom feels comfortable to bring me.

She says the staff is well trained and that she can see me and all my friends when she leaves or comes to get me.

She likes the way everyone knows my name, that they tell her who I played with, and how my day went.

I love Dioji Athletic Club because I have fun, I make new friends, and I have great toys to play with.

 

Thank you,
Toby Duensing

The Dioji Family

Brooke Patterson

Hometown: Santa Clarita

Pets of my own: Luci and Charlotte (both Jack Russells) and Sophie (a Maltese)

Something people may not know about you: Outside of my love for dogs, I also love riding motorcycles in my freetime.

Favorite activity with the dogs: I love going into the pool area and playing and splashing with the dogs. It's so much fun to watch them dive and try to bite the water!

Favorite Dioji moment: One day when I was watching the dogs in the pool, Willy, one of our Chocolate Labs, came running into the pool and dove straight to the bottom. It was so funny watching him swim around the bottom of the pool as if he were a person swimming under water!
