Now that we’re all adults, let’s be honest with each other; going back to school totally sucks. Once August rears its humid, frizzy head, students and teachers alike feel that unrelenting tightness begin to expand in their chests. Our big box friends do their best to encourage excitement over existential dread for the season, to… Read More

This time of year you cannot drive very far without seeing countless graduation signs at the end of driveways. We would love to add our sign into the mix! With humans, graduations occur only a select few times a year. With Dogwatch, graduations occur nearly daily! It’s the perfect time to dust off the old… Read More

April in the northeast is an immensely unpredictable time. We experience glimpses of the hottest days of summer, followed by endless dreary days of rain, sleet, and dare I suggest… snow. Some days you can experience all four seasons in one singular day, no hormonal imbalance required! It is no wonder the notoriously ambivalent April… Read More

The stereotypes about March are not great. Nearly all language surrounding this time of year is… negative, to say the least. It’s always “March Madness” this, and “Spring Fever” that; followed by Mother Nature’s final attempt to trap us in our homes with her blizzardy tirade, which then instantly melts into a muddy slush from… Read More

Hallmark has deemed February to be the month of love. They quite literally call it, “Loveuary,” to really drive the point home. Valentine’s Day is here, despite many people willing it out of existence. So don’t forget to grab a box of chocolates (NOT the coconut filled ones) and an overpriced love letter–written by a… Read More

In the United States alone, about 5-10% of dogs are deaf. Chances are that at some point in your life, you may encounter, or perhaps even own, a hard of hearing or deaf dog. Deaf dogs are technically considered disabled; however, because the disability is not physical, it is often overlooked. Being deaf does not… Read More

We all know that suspicious feeling, when your dog sighs just a little bit too dramatically from across the couch. He can tell I told my coworker her dog was, “the cutest little fluff ball I ever did see,” can’t he? After all I do for him—I give him food (a serving size for a… Read More
