Krimson & Klover's Dog Days of Summer



Hello beautiful fashionistas!  We wanted to make this week’s blog about our furry friends, and we are so excited!  If you follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest or Instagram you know we love animals!  This blog will be dedicated to picking out your perfect dog, caring for your new friend and fun furry animal things to do in Dallas!

So you know you want a dog, but how do you decide which breed is a best match to be your newest BFF?  If you don’t know about the different dog breeds or you have never owned a dog before, we suggest doing some research before making a commitment.  Smart Select has a great 21 question quiz that can help you narrow down your ideas to those that best match your answers; from there you can start some real research.  Once you have selected your breed, think about what age dog you want.  We are firm believers in rescuing pets, trust us; you will not have a problem finding your chosen breed and age.  Adopting gives a second chance to those who deserve it most. 
Owning a pet is so rewarding, but one thing we have to remember is that our friends rely on us for everything, their whole lives!  We don’t want to lecture on how to care for your dog, but we want to give you a few basics.  Dogs can easily get infested with ticks and fleas, so make sure you have them protected with a monthly flea and tick repellent.  Along with ticks & fleas, they can get internal issues, such as heartworms; these come from a simple mosquito bite so every dog is at risk.  This preventative is a lot like flea & tick preventative and they can even be bought together.  Outside of those two things, just keep an eye out for any distress in your furry friend, make sure they get a yearly checkup at the vet and you will be great!
So what do we do for fun with our dogs around Dallas?  Making this decision depends on what you want to do but Dallas has several spots to take ‘Fido’ with you:

Trails:



Lakes:
Lake Lewisville
Lake Grapevine
White Rock Lake

Dog Parks:

Restaurants:

But this may be our favorite find of all Mutts Cantina!  It is a dog park, bar, restaurant all in one!  Check it out, but check out their site before you go to make sure your friend is in compliance with their rules.  

We hope you love your new best friend!  We want you to know, July starts to Dog Days of Summer, every Saturday in July, if you bring your dog to Krimson & Klover, you will get 10% off everything!  Happy shopping ladies and we cannot wait to meet you and your best friend.
