September is here and at the time of this small bite release Labor Day Weekend has commenced its 3 day declaration of the end of summer. The true start to Autumn this year is September 22nd but if you’re anything like me Labor Day marks the turning of the season. This year may look a little different than last with the ongoing pandemic, but the world will still turn, the seasons will still change, and mother nature will still do her thing. A changing season brings a new set of hazards, and new considerations you should take before breaking out the flannels and pumpkin spice. I’ve compiled a list of the most important things to look out for as you kick off your spooky season.

Since 2014, On Demand Dog Walking Apps have been rising rapidly in popularity. These apps connect dog owners with contracted dog walkers - essentially an Uber for dog walking. Simply download the app, plug in your info, put your key in a lock box and a total stranger will come into your home and walk your dog. Just one google search will prove, this concept goes just as bad as you think it would.

Though they may not know it by name, just about every dog owner encounters the Alpha theory at some point. Have you ever heard someone chock unwanted behaviors up to a dog thinking he or she is alpha? Or explain that poor behaviors are a challenge against the owner for the alpha role? And of course the solution to these issues would be for the owner to assert their dominance by staring down, overpowering and even inflicting pain on their dog to “put it in its place”. After all, the Alpha of the pack has first dibs and full control over all the resources, like the owner of a well trained dog. But could this theory be a myth?
